Day 61 - Glass Houses

Day 61 and all the windows and doors are in place!  And we were locked out!  Of our own house!

It was okay though, because the garage door doesn't yet exist so all the locked doors didn't make up for the gaping hole in one end of the house.

Overview from Mt. Topsoil.

View from the south.  The bare patch is where the drainage field went in.  With any luck it won't be too overgrown by the time we're out there to keep the weeds under control.  That is also the rough area that the raised vegetable beds and herb gardens will be going.  The door right of center leads to the kitchen.

View from South East.  More drainage field.  Also the water tank.

View from North East.  Closest are the two sliding glass doors to the living room.  Main entry is in the center past which are the windows to the dining room and then the 2nd bedroom.

View from drive.  Well sealed lockable shell, if it weren't for the garage door!

Fuse box!

Network Hub!

 Plumbing!

Kitchen.  The window on the floor was meant to go in the laundry room, which was just off of the kitchen (left of the kitchen door, just in this photo).  But in the end we moved the laundry into the garage and turned that room into a pantry, removing the need for a window there.  So now we've got a lovely little double glazed window to put... somewhere, someday!

In addition, we borrowed the work van for the day to transport a couple of loads of the larger trees down.  

Here is the space by the old cow shed next door which we cleared out and rigged up irrigation sprinklers in.

 And here is one of the loads of trees we brought down (most are about 2m/6ft)

Which started to fill the space.  Still a good bit of room, fortunately.  Fortunate because we've got another half dozen loads to come, at the very least.  Some are too big and will have to wait until we can find something with a 3m/9ft clearance.  A couple are bigger still but we'll find a way!
