December 19, 2016: Low voltage day. And my birthday.
It was freezing! Only 19 degrees when we arrived in Hidden Valley but the low voltage couldn't wait - we HAD to get this done (or at least get a good start on it).
My son, Patrick, took the day off to help us. He walked around on cold concrete all day long in tennis shoes with a sprained toe.
My brother in law, Jim, also came to help of for two days. This photo is looking towards Lake Chelan where he and my sister have a gorgeous home on the lake.
Brian was ready and organized.
The contractor wrapped the house which probably saved our lives. Also, Mike the foreman bought a propane heater to warm the great room and I parked myself next to it most of the day answering "Happy Birthday" texts from friends and relatives.
The apple tree looking very cold. Soon it will be time to prune and fertilize.
The snow was absolutely perfect that day. Soft and powdery. I started feeling warmer the instant the sun came out. It will be nice to look at this view inside a warm house.
December 4, 2016: Lots and lots to talk about
The weather is changing. Quickly.
The fireplace is finished and is magnificent!
The roof went on and really makes a statement.
Here you can see the firebox and wood storage. We've decided that the addition of glass doors will radiate heat and prevent the wind from blowing our fire out.
A better look at the roof partially covered with snow.
November 24, 2016: Some photos from the inside.
Looking down the hallway towards the great room.
The main bath. The tub will be placed over that indentation in the concrete. This is where you will find me sipping a glass of wine and enjoying the view.
The bedroom closest to the kitchen.
The great room.
From the top of the stairs looking into the guest apartment.
Here, I'm standing where the guest suite bathroom will be.
Below is a link the a time lapse that is fun to watch.
