This week Dad drew an AutoCad picture of the flooring layout including the wood stove hearth so we'll know how all pieces will fit. Then he built a frame so Mom could set the slate flush with the wood floor.  The slate color is a little dark; our paw prints show!!  I'm sure we'll never hear the end of it!




Today we had our first fire in an insulated house!!

We installed the closet door and the cellar door (unfinished).  The cellar door should help keep the house warmer.

The windows got cleaned up this week too!  All the tape and mud was removed and sanded ready to be stained!


Osker's foot seems to be better.  Although there may be something in his foot, it's not slowing him down!
