Zero Degrees


Still cold this morning (zero degrees celsius upon waking up - not scooter weather yet), but the snow banks are slowly melting away. I took some picture last week of the house with my new phone. Some inside, some outside, some of our animals. An update.





Moose roaming around in our front yard (taken from second story window):Chickens, also in the front yard:




Fresh backyard egg plus bat-face dog:

Two gardens waiting for the soil to dry before tilling. I'm planning a third garden (out of view on the left) so I can plant green manure on a three year cycle in each bed:View over the bridge to the orchard:
Remnants of one of our fallen trees:
Canuck decorations strewn about our front porch:


View from the kitchen sink down the hall to the front door with arched entry framed in, and new plywood subfloor:
Alcove design will let us display nifty art and pottery one day:


Slim fridge nestled between beams in our newly expanded kitchen area. Patio doors stored next to the growler (we're classy like that).Hearth with supper (framed by bright purple insulation):Newly framed pocket door interior wall, one of many new interior walls (also, stack of firewood):

Feline pet thing:

Canine pet thing hanging out in our upstairs living room (the one with real furniture, curtains, bookcases and carpet):Hand-drawn design of our exterior "master plan" including vegetation, out-buildings, and planned changes:
