The IRS came through right on time.
Dale was ready to buy materials for framing the walls
and in Thursday's mail... refund check!
Friday morning early... off to the lumber store.
The sill plates were measured, drilled and put in place.
Assembly in his shop.
He loves the saw he found on Craig's List!
Brother Dean helps move the front wall into place.
Can you see a red door and 9-pane windows?
Window boxes and flower pots along the front?
A hummingbird feeder between the windows?
A comfy chair for basking in the morning sun?
Nailing down the back wall.
A brother's help is much appreciated.
(Lord knows Kim couldn't haul a wall!)
Three walls up!
It snowed again Saturday night and freezing rain iced things up,
but Dean came the next morning to help with the big end wall.
It just fit through the garage door.
Someone said it looked like a church window.
Hmmm... my new quiet place?

It's coming together, nicely! Exciting to think of colors, and flowers, and the interior.

It's looking great. I can hardly wait for the end result. Awesome! We got our refund back too but we have it auto deposited due to the mail theft going on this time of year. We will spend it though.) How exciting it must be for you. Yay!
