Fun weekend in New Hampshire! Latest Update!

Latest photos! 


Ready for power! 




I can hardly wait for the deck and farmers porch to be installed! The two will be connected so the farmers porch will wrap around to the deck! 


This is where the farmers porch will be! 



No stairs yet but I was able to go up to the loft anyway! Our contractor likely won’t install stairs until the house is weather tight as these will be nicely finished stairs that we do not want exposed to any rain, or snow! It was only 31 degrees when we woke up this morning! 


The basement is nice and dry! 



The kitchen will be on the right and living room on the left! In the middle will be the sliding door to the deck! 


Nice view of the mountains from the loft! 


We should install a window here! Hmmmmm; might have time to ask our contractor about this! I’m thinking a triangular-shaped window! Oh, wait, forgot this is where the bathroom will be and the shower will be here so this has to be closed in. There is no way to move the shower either. It has to go here. Bummer! 


The bathroom will be to the right at the edge of the loft. There will be a walk way at the top of the stairs, which will be open to the mountain view! 


Our loft bedroom and bathroom area! The bathroom isn’t framed out yet. The stairs will come up where the long 2x4’s cross! 


The door opening is the door to the farmers porch! 


Our loft master bedroom! There will be a closet on the right. 



Our bathroom will be on the right. The window is framed in but covered for now. They will probably trim it open when they are ready to install the window. 


This corner area will be open! 



Kitchen area down below! Getting ready to climb down the ladder! Not bad for almost 59 years old! 👍


Downstairs bathroom framed in! The upstairs bathroom will be right above this! 


View from the slider! 




Larger bedroom on the first floor, to the right. There will be two closets between both bedrooms. One closet will open into the larger bedroom and the other closet will open into the smaller bedroom. 


Smaller bedroom. 


Larger bedroom. 




Back down in the basement! 






Back upstairs again! Smaller bedroom! 



Our telephone pole! So happy that it’s out near the street with underground wiring to the house! 


Ready for the meter! 


Back to the basement! 



Back on the first floor! 





Our telephone pole! 



New telephone pole across the street! Wires will go from here to our telephone pole! 


I adjusted the security camera while there! It now captures the entire house! 

Before: 



After: 


Our telephone pole! I am glad it’s not highly visible from the house or driveway! It is pretty much out near the street. 


And some videos! 


First time walking up the basement stairs to the first floor! So exciting! 




My son and Grandson went hunting this morning on our property! They were having some fun with the security camera! I finally noticed they were there, went into the camera app and was able to say, “Hi” to them! LOL!! 👍❤️💕


And more photos early afternoon today before heading back home! 


Kitchen area! 


Door to the future farmers porch! 



The dogs and I went for a walk. Photo from down below! 








Our brook is running just a little still! We have not had much rain lately! 



The dogs and me taking our walk today, captured on one of the game cameras my son placed on our property!!!!


That’s all for now, folks!! 👍👍👍

    TY, Sis!! It truly is a dream come true! All of it from living up the road from our son and his family, the log house, the 12+ acres with mountain view and river border! Plus being back in New Hampshire to “Live Free Or Die!” Everything we ever wanted! 💕❤️👍🥰😘

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...
