what a long strange trip it's been

We are sliding into the home stretch.  Bill the Builder was at the property today cleaning up and overseeing installation of the appliances.  Seeding and cleaning up the last of the downed trees should happen this week and I received the word that the painter will come on Monday to do re-touches.  We have the go ahead to move furniture in the end of next week.   Hard to believe, isn't it.  It will be a year in October that I purchased the property.  The year seemed to fly by, but it isn't over.  It's just beginning.  Now I have to figure out how to garden in the woods and co-exist with all the wild critters that share the space with me.

water!

Finally, a potty and running water, also appliances and a stair case with a handrail.  Kitchen counter and cabinet hardware was also added.  Won't be long now, I think.  Yippee!
