Farmhouse Drawing and Site Photos


Progress on the home front has been going much more slowly lately due to the unpredictable weather and church and dating activities.  I've been cleaning up the limbs from the tree-cutting operation, cutting down dozens of 'weed trees', and yesterday I started digging out some stumps from the driveway.  My dad and I also put in some cedar logs along the sides of the culvert at the road to keep the gravel from washing into the ditch.  I've also been doing some research on metal roofing, spiral staircases, and building code requirements.  The plans are still in progress, but I've got the major design changes worked out.  Yesterday (while it was sunny!) I took some pictures of the site, including the new fencing and the driveway.  I've also included my latest SketchUp drawing to give you an idea of the new look of the house (above).  Enjoy!
