We continue full steam ahead. I've been switching back and forth from plumber to electrician for the last couple weeks. I must say that plumbing is much more enjoyable. You have to drill too many holes when you are running wire. Also the roofers came this week and got the shingles and tin put up. You can't really see it but Leslie wanted a cupola put on the roof over the garage and when she went shopping around for one they ranged from $700 to $1500 dollars so she decided to just make one. It will probably end up costing us $150. It just looks like a black box on the roof right now. I'll take pictures when it's finished. In the mean time here are some photo's of the exterior and the arch we built to divide the kitchen from the living room, note the posts in the arch and the beams on the ceiling. These were the remaining wall for a farm building on a ranch up in Idaho. It's kinda funny when people come and want to walk through the house the different reactions we get to the old wood we are putting in our new house. Some think it's pretty cool lookin' and others just look at it and agree that it's old. We like it and it took as the good part of a morning to get them up, so we aren't taking them down at this point.
