Footed and powered!




The concrete pouring has begun! The boys from Brendan Concrete did a great job setting up and pouring the footings for the cellar (too bad we left the camera at home- but here you can see the results). Tomorrow they'll get going on the cellar walls. And PSNH, those wonderful men, finished wiring the poles, so now we got the power!

Hunt is spending a lot of time on the land, watching the work and spending time at the little camp house, where we will be storing most of our worldly possessions as of next week. I meanwhile have been sorting and organizing said possessions, packing boxes, deciding what goes where, and which if anything can be sold or given away. It's the third year in a row that I have moved to another dwelling, with one more small move from camp to house coming up in the fall. I'm really good at packing, sorting, organizing and moving. But once we have moved into our First Day Cottage, I'm really looking forward to settling in and finding out what it's like to stay put. We both have dreamed about having a house like this for so long, and we're amazed and grateful that the reality is upon us.
