Our Home is Coming Together!


Front of the house is going up! This is the main entry way with BBB's office windows on the right.




   This is the interior of BBB's corner office - with view to boot! Very similar to the original curve.



South facing scaffolding and lots of Tyvek plastic wrap...



And here we are a little more cleaned up!

More coming soon...
Thanks for stopping by!

House plans - street view

House Plan

Here are the plans for the house. Duffy has designed the house to reflect the curve of the front porch from the old house. The front room has a series of 5 skinny window creating the curve and plenty of fresh air.

SLAB & FRAME Party: Deemed a Hit!

Saturday, January 11th 2014 was the perfect day to celebrate the Slab going down and the Frame going up! We ate, we drank and we were certainly very merry! It was oh so much fun - just take a look and thank you to all who made it out!


The view of our home-to-be from Jim's roof-top.

More...

...and more bones.

The sky gets more blue when you go up!

So many more sunsets to come...

Back down on the Earth's crust, a celebration ensued!

Lots of CAUTION tape and lots of cocktails!

The blueprints were on display.



Friends and family signed this matting (which we'll frame along with a "before" pic,)
offering us well wishes. Thanks everyone!
 

View from behind the bar - that Matt sure can pour!
