Fall Equinox Sept 23, 2011
Some views from Lolly Willows, where autumnal leaf color is peaking right this moment!
The first grass has grown in after construction.....
Reading and snoozing on the screen porch bed: a full time occupation
Path to Moose Poop Point
Yes, I do sew! these psychedelic chintz pillows *pop* the pupils and lift the spirits
more nooks for reading /napping / swooning
another stinky hippie levitating on the veranda
A black bear on the driveway at 7a.m.
No need to get out of bed for receiving visitors; M holds forth on topics such as mushroom identification or favorite brands of gin.

Sappho is doing well after her summer surgical procedure; when not nursing a hangover, she's entirely focused on swimming and fetching.

Lolly just steps to completion
The cabin (as played by Marilyn) now lacks only porch steps to be fully complete for The Misfits.

New Photos August 3, 2011
Progress! A sturdy new screen porch door custom made by Brad K.; it's a beauty and a marvel--now we can sleep outdoors all night long.
The cabin is getting some earth-shaping to soften it around the edges. It sits on a stone ledge, so topsoil and river stones are being brought in. We'll plant native meadow seed and wildflower mix and let the grass and ferns grow mostly wild.

A cedar indoor shower; we have HOT WATER SHOWERS NOW, thank you Brad K and Colin!!!!!!
We have cosy furniture inside the house now, too, but I don't have photos because my i-phone was run over by a car (many times) near the dairy farm in West Glover and I lost alot of pics...truly. --S.
Sappho had her big event--a parathyroid operation--and is now back to swimming and fetching sticks like a crazed fanatical drooling varmint.

June 20, 2011 Photos
Some new photos from past weekend. Carpenter Brad K. did this cleverly integrated new work including doors, table, screened porch knee-wall and water collection system. Maybe it will all be finished by late July (?)...but is it ever finished? And the final details are worth the wait. Spent the weekend barbecuing and hauling out brush and wood debris, making paths through the woods; put up the old tent, and waxed the canoe.
New doors and amazing table with built-in benches
Screened porch almost finished; close-up of gutters to water collection system
Solar power panels and propane tank / battery / generator shed
Solar battery array / water collection tank / water pressure tank / on-demand water heater
