September 22/23rd














Hi all! We finally have some new photos to show you. We were away from the cottage for a few weeks, and last weekend, although Rob was up there....he forgot to take pictures!
This weekend, we did not forget! We are happy to report that we have electricity (note the operational lights in photos), our plumbing is nearing completion (when we have a toilet that flushes - - I'll call it done !), the fireplace is in (still needs to be boxed in and a hearth installed), and the ceiling is enclosed with gorgeous tongue-and-groove pine! The only piece the builder has left to do is finish a little bit of board and batten around the windows at the front - - they ran out of siding (the only major glitch thus far), so we wait until that comes in.
Now Rob is working on panelling the walls in the bathroom and kitchen first, in preparation for our kitchen cupboards and the bathroom vanity to be installed the week after Thanksgiving (first photo is bathroom walls). We hope to have the whole place panelled before the snow flies. Then the rest will have to wait until spring as our road in is seasonal. Slowly, slowly.....
