Inspired by evil4blue. I will update a progess happens and when I remember.

Rather than posting a bunch of pictures here clogging up the server. I have created a Our New Home page on my website. It can be viewed here. Please feel free to look around while you are in there. Not much PP done on these as I have bigger fish to fry right now.

Very nice! Are you going to sleep on the dirt or stay inside the dozer?

Just kidding... congratulations. A new home is exciting!

i suggest taking a ton of photos of the house frame work before sheet rock goes up. they will be VERY useful in the future...

definitely shoot a lot of photos and make sure to cover plumbing, electrical etc etc.

Here here on taking lots of photos. When you want to run some wiring after the sheetrock is up, it's nice to know where all the studs and headers are.

Nice to see progress is being made. My build seems to be flying now. I almost wish they'd slow down a little bit so I can keep track of stuff better.

Foundation pour and almost completly framed pictures added. Started drilling the well today, cable broke had to chase parts. Got the rig back together and we are in so much sand the borehole would not stop caving in so they are going to install steel casing and resume drilling tomorrow.This land is real funny out here. I would bet a bunch that if you went 300-600 yards to the west of me you would hit rock at 50-75 feet. They are down 150 plus feet and still sand. Will post well pictures when they are done.
