We had a 6 year plan. We bought our land, we'd slowly start working on it and by the time Bob retired in 6 years we'd be ready to build. The timing changed when Bob was offered early retirement - and took it - no looking back! This worked out great for us in terms of time & money. We really want to move from our current home and live mortgage free with lower taxes. The plan now is to start building as soon as possible. We've got the house plan drawn, priced logs, have decided where we want the house on the lot and have started clearing the land. This blog will be a chronicle of our homesteading. From the first walks around our property to move in date, we hope to capture it all here in words, photos, & video. Friends & family keep tuned in - you may all be called on for expertise, a strong back, or maybe just to join us on the porch for a cup of coffee!

Update Fall 2015

We're still working on the cabin. Bob's started laying floor joists and last weekend we started the duct work for the heating system. Bob also completed the trim on the windows and doors on the outside of the house.

Working on the power


 
We've got the power lines running to the house. Everything is buried and we're waiting for Green Mountain Power to come and hook it up at the pole. It was a chore just getting this done this year with all the rain we've had. We're going to start working inside again soon.
