The church/weekend home (see my profile on blogger for the other blog that has some church photos) is 1854.<br /><br />Hi Gribbey - I know, right down to the wire. We weren't expecting the snow (we didn't have our snowboots) so it was laughable afterwards how close we cut it!<br /><br />Hi Judy - Yes, you can relate to all of this, can't you? :)angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10580426976030683874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3563610431117443069.post-15903355912877687812010-12-09T19:08:39.887-06:002010-12-09T19:08:39.887-06:00Oo, how exciting.

We are finalizing our plans in the next few weeks. The drawing in the header of the blog is Bill's rendition of our future home. (The current building is the building on the left in the drawing.)<br /><br />We are committed to building as green as possible. Bill attended a Green Building Construction Expo a few weeks ago and spoke to contractors and construction industry experts for an entire day about their products. We are considering going with SIPs.

We would love to get building on our land next year, but find ourselves somewhat stymied. I'd appreciate any advice.<br /><br />BrettTrout Caviarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11236671377889601457noreply@blogger.com
