Finally some new pics

The moving van got as close as possible and then everything had to be transferred to a small truck and shuttled up the hill.

Our garage began to fill up quickly and boxes were everywhere. The garage is now filled -- yikes! Now we understand why there are so many storage facilities out here.

In the midst of all this Kathy started trying to make our first dinner.

And I kept unloading boxes, and more boxes and more boxes.

This is actually only the beginning of the pile of "to be recycled" stuff. I had to stop taking pictures because there was no time.

Once we got through most of the chaos of unpacking we spent the next two weeks with Jason (our foreman) and Lewis (lead carpenter who seems to be able to do anything) finishing out a ton of little stuff. I promised them I would mention that this was their lunch break.

Lewis with Kathy are sitting on the bench they just finished. They used a leftover piece of beam and it now sits in the "Zen Garden" next to the pond. I'll set up a series of finished house pic's in the next blog and try to remember to get the pond and bench in there.
