Barn Raising, Day 4

Much accomplished today! What a great bunch of guys. Just can’t say it enough. And they’re all local, small-town, farm boys. Yay! Not a lot more left for them to do. Besides concrete floor for the building and porch, they have trim, roof vents, gutters, cupola and weathervane. I think that’s about it for them. Then our work really begins. Mr. W and I have been plotting, measuring out, planning the bathroom area today… and where the kitchen sink will be. There’s been a lot of manual shovel work going on last night and today!

Here’s our day 4 pic:

Oh I'd love to have a vase of those Lilacs on my table now. I've never had much luck growing them.
Hope Mr W has that weathervane hammered out. After all next week he has places to go and people to see.

Lovely pictures, arent the Lilac's especially scrumptious smelling this year or is it just me. I picked a huge bouquet and have them on my night stand and oh they smell heavenly. I smell thenm everytime I move at night and I just think Ahhh!!!! I wish they bloomed all summer.

Looks like some exciting times going on at your place.

Oh oh oh those lilacs! My lilacs are ancient and barely bloom any longer. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'll be visiting again since I see that we have tons in common! (Love your clock. I'm going to figure out how to get one on my blog---after I plant a few tomatoes that is.)
