Winter has settled in around us with its extremes of beauty and damaging and deadly cold. We have seen it well below -10 here on occasion over the past 2 weeks.

Well, the house is up and inhabited! We have a lodger and are seeing how the building likes winter! The exceptionally heavy snow caused some gutter damage and the low temperatures revealed a weak spot in the water supply to house which is easily remedied. Other than that, the project can be deemed to have been completed well. Thanks to Rob, (architect) Arthur (builder)and his doughty team.
