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!

The pace has picked up

We've got the partition walls in thanks to Bernie. His expertise definitely sped up the process. Next we'll be pulling wires. We've got calls in for the well & septic and are waiting to get those scheduled. The mud this year was horrendous! We did put a small load of stone in the driveway but will need much more before next spring.

We've giving a hell of a deal on the house in Haverhill. Any takers?


It's starting to look like a house inside.

Bernie's a great friend - no matter what anyone says.
