Rock On

The cold weather was a reminder that our masonry wood stove remains unfinished so we ordered the natural rock that will provide the skin around the core unit and also the chimney. The pallets looked moderately sized but each one weighs over 1.5 ton. That was a lot of moving from one wet location to a dry one where the rock can air out and also be close to the stove for easy maneuvering.



Of course it poured.



Tim found the "biggest spider in the world" amongst the rock.




Rock Solid



The bathroom push out was another unfinished project and Kirk covered the outside with lap cedar siding which will be a nice contrast to the lime plaster.



Nice family of ladders.



Instead of conventional bathroom ventilation Kirk installed a high efficiency fan system which we ordered from the East Coast. This will provide good air exchange in what we anticipate will be an air-tight home.



Chase for ventilation pipe, located in upstairs master closet.



Fan housing located in downstairs bedroom.
