After years of searching for a waterfront house site, we found a lot this fall on Mascoma Lake, very near our current house. This blog will follow the progress of our new timberframe house construction this year. Please enjoy and share our excitement. You can click on any picture for a larger view.

Thanksgiving

Below are a few random pictures from Thanksgiving, a day that seemed especially poignant to us this year, given all that we have to be thankful for around our new home. The septic field and all the back yard grading are now in, shown in the first picture, ready for state inspection. Cabinets are being installed, shown in pantry and stacked up ready to install in kitchen. Doors are going up, shown are front closet doors. Stairs and all the interior carpentry finishing work is in progress. The red birch floor is down on the mainfloor, a small uncovered segment is shown below. Meanwhile, outdoors, our carpenty crew is finishing the siding, and the masons are finishing the stone columns that support the porch. Last, but not least, the electricians are doing all the panel wiring, including then new generator, shown in the last picture. The house is now being heated by the geothermal system that is functional. Great to have heat without propane in NE! We are now in the race to the finish, starting our packing at 7 Juniper Lane, which we will vacate after 26.5 years on Jan 15, 2011!
