The tree's keep coming and so the building goes on.

The tree's keep coming and so the saw-milling and the building goes on.

Where will it end?

Imagination and apparently physics have no end.....

Morningsides

Between the rains and 100 plus degree weather and having to go into the city last Sunday to buy a new refrigerator, Kevin & Arthur have been working on the roof.

The softness of the early day is enchanting to me. So, on this wonderfully cool morning I walked to see the north side stepping into the trees to scope out a view for the camera lens.

I love the peak over Arthur’s room and the high ceiling office to the left of it where I will carry on with my writing adventures and of course continue this blog of Kevin’s artful projects beyond building the house.

South side led my bare feet onto the lawn wet from last nights rain. Here I visit with kitchen daydreams of entertaining and gathering with friends. …or maybe I’ll just it on the deck and write…and let the charm of it all take over me….

This is after all Cherylwood Forest…..

Yes, to me it’s magical; to Kevin with his degree in engineering and Arthur with his love of numbers it’ mostly mathematical. Calculating corners, angles and precision cuts, the hoisted green tin now sets the tone and protects our future lying snug in place boasting smooth overlaps and ridge cap.

Kevin says let the rain come, gutters go up next.

Half sheeted and not tucked in

Half of the roof is sheeted. 

Kitchen and living room areas are now under cover. Arthur’s loft above Kevin & my bedroom and my office are on the waiting list.  

Kevin and Arthur climbed aboard to enjoy the spoils.

Arthur rolled a bottle of water from his spot in the name of gravity and momentum. The X & Y factors of motion. 

They invited me up…..ah, I think I’ll just keep my view from the ground for now.      

Watching them I drifted into a heady admiration, smiled and reflected on the perseverance, sweat and time that went into cutting those boards and then the energy Kevin exerted to haul them to roof level to set them.

New logs are on the way.....

Yeah, I’m happy.
