Property Update!

So exciting that our septic design has been completed, signed by us and submitted to the state for final approval! The plans for the driveway, house and septic are ready to be submitted to the town for the building permit once the septic design has been approved by a the state! 

Since our house will have three bedrooms, a three-bedroom septic is all that is required. However, for $2,500 extra we opted for a four-bedroom septic, which includes installation of what is needed for plumbing, as far as the septic goes, down in the basement in case we ever decide to add a bathroom there in the future. We already will have two full bathrooms on our main and second floors and we don’t really need a third bathroom. But, if we really wanted to, we could finish the basement with a one-bedroom apartment if we want to, with the potential for rental income if we desire. Or we could add just a bedroom and bathroom down there if desired. Nice to have potential options! 

The septic design should be approved by mid-week next week and the building permit within a few weeks. This takes longer because it has to go to a town meeting for final approval. The town meetings are monthly so it all depends on how submission for the building permit and meeting fall into place. There shouldn’t be any issues with the approval of the septic design or building permit. 

Well, here are the plans with driveway, house, septic and proposed well locations! Just beyond exciting!

Catching Up: Wildlife

We have a couple of game cameras down at the bottom of the field. We totally enjoyed the wildlife that these cameras captured!  This cutie has been around since the fall after we cleared the field out back and got the grass growing! We call her Nibbles, as she loves nibbling on the grass!  I can always tell it’s Nibbles when I see the dark spot on her inner right rear leg!  We had so many deer during the winter rut season!  Meet Gaylord Faulker! The coolest buck around! After he shed his large antler at the end of the rut, Hubby found it! So cool! When you find sheds in the woods you don’t know the deer they came from. First time we actually know the deer that it came from! How cool is that.  Here’s his antler! If we could find his short antler, the package would be complete! Once the snow melts, I’ll be out there searching for it! It’s a tough one to find, though!  This was when he shed his large antler! The before and after photos!  Another before an...

My son and his family went by our house in New Hampshire and we FaceTimed so we could see the house!  We weren’t able to get up to New Hampshire this weekend as we have been busy packing here to prepare for our move. My daughter-in-law also took some photos and a video and sent them to us. Here they are!  The glass doors have been installed in the bathroom shower units! Here’s the upstairs bathroom!  Here’s the downstairs bathroom!  They made a little more progress with the great room ceiling! They have to cut and treat the boards before they hang them. I believe this past week our contractor focused more on board prep. Once dry after treating them, installing them will be pretty quick!  Looks like the ceiling in the larger of the two downstairs bedrooms is done! I think this completes this bedroom as far as hanging tongue and groove pine wallboards! They will eventually add trim at the joints and around the window and will hang the closet and entry doors! ...

Weekend Visit!

I went up to New Hampshire this weekend and took multiple photos! Great progress is being made with the house so it is ready for us to move into early June! In about one month we will be moving in! I just can’t believe it! It’s just too good to be true! Our dream of a log cabin is coming true! Having a mountain view, property on a mountain river and 12.55 acres is also a dream! But the best dream come true is living 1.5 miles up the road from my son, daughter-in-law, grandson and granddaughter! I will believe it on move in day! LOL! Oh, and another thing is that I get to keep my dream job too! While living here in eastern Connecticut, I have worked from home for a company in Rhode Island since August 2016, and I love my job! It was just approved on Thursday morning! Another dream is coming true! I know God has been helping me throughout all of this!  OK, time for photos!  This is my weathervane at my home in Connecticut:  As of yesterday afternoon, it is now behind my hom...
