We had our first snow at the house on November 25th, and there is more expected this week so I imagine that it is the beginning of winter for us. The 10 day forecast shows a low of 3 degrees for Friday and we don’t have heat in the house yet. We expect the gas meter installed by the end of the week, and then we can fire up the 50,000 BTU fireplace to get some heat in the house. With the garage door going in by the end of the week, we should be closed in and warm enough for the cold spell.
Our dog Cooper has been spending the days with us up there since we closed the house in with a wall of OSB over the garage door opening while waiting for the door to arrive and be installed.
The pocket door framing is finally done and the fire suppression system goes in this week. Rough electrical goes in next week. All the wood windows are stained so they are sealed from any warping thanks to L working diligently on them.
Cooper loves looking out all the floor level windows at the deer that come down each evening.
A little bit of snow…probably melted by day’s end.
