We've begun!



This may not look like much to you but to us it is the real beginning to our new home! We have a foot print, a feel for size and space, a promise... As I go through these pics I can see the garage and the kitchen and where the fireplace will be.

Unfortunately I was tied up this weekend so Tom was here without me, but he did a great job on the pics. He also made decisions. The basement door will walk out straight to the back yard from under our Master Bath and there will be a large window in the side wall to overlook where we will put the meditation garden to let in light and view. We (Tom) decided no on a woodstove for the basement and yes on a heat duct to the four-season room. Now we wait for the lumber to arrive so Mike can start framing. If concrete excites you as much as it does us, there are more pics of the foundation below.

(By the way, did you notice how green the trees have gotten? )

  1. Hi Mary Ellen,
    Thanks so much for doing this. It is a great way to share an exciting process. Perhaps a sketch of the final product would help or do you want to keep people in suspense?
