Getting ready to clear the trees and stumps.


Remember the path.

The cutting of the big pines.

A lot of wood chips to use.

A lot of work to clean up the area.

A few of the logs waiting to be made into paneling.

Only one of the wood chip piles. Lots of fun to come.

GEOTHERMAL SYSTEM WELLS DRILLED
The build is still going well.  The interior and exterior walls on both the first and second floors are in place.  The concrete is poured for all the porches and garage.  The walls for the garage have begun.  The wells for the Geothermal System are being drilled.  The house is looking good and I hope you enjoy the pictures of the progress.
