Just a few images I shot the other evening to document the current state of the build. Steven is outside now working on the roof. Tomorrow the roofers are coming to have a chat and arrange when they'll come in to do the steel work.











(all those huge beams were hoisted up by hand!)









We were originally going to have a skylight above where our bed will be upstairs, so that we could lie in bed and look up at the stars. Sounds very romantic! But actually, when we did a test (by lying on some plywood on the upstairs rafters), it will be a bit too bright and overwhelming in the daylight. And we can see the stars out of the other windows anyway. So that's one less window to bother with. Hopefully that will speed things up!!

Elmer and I are home sick, we both have colds. We've read his favourite tractor book about three million times, and here he is now at my desk to let me know it's time to go again. Yey!
