Framing has Started

I can't believe it's been almost 3 weeks since my last post. So much has been going on. Cliff has been up to the property 3 times, I've been there twice. Two of the trips were quick, one overnight and the other just up and back the same day to drop off the generator.
I was also gone for 8 days at Quilt Camp/visiting with Jen and Ryan. Needless to say we've been busy!


Our framing has begun! We drove up on Friday (this time for the weekend) and saw the first of the framing, our bedroom, which is the downstairs portion of the house.

Here's the view out of the master bedroom french doors (you have to imagine the doors being on and walls around them).

This next photo is our inspector, Billy the Dober-dog, checking out the quality of the work. He seems to be pleased with the progress.

Our friend Alex drove up for the day to help Cliff finish the electrical work into the well-house. We're now ready to call PG&E to hook up power to our property.

The construction is moving faster than we imagined, which is wonderful. By the next time we get up there the upstairs framing will be in progress. I'll post more pictures this week, so check back. The well-house (or pump-house as they call it up there) is almost done and very impressive. You will want to see it!
