An unexpected bonus

Looking out from the study windows of the house we discovered an unexpected bonus... a pond, shimmering in the sunlight. It will be a delight to see the water most days.


The crew have been soldiering on in freezing temperatures and today, the roof is now ready for the shingles, which I believe will be installed on Monday.

It was so so cold that there was snow in our living room this morning!


This photograph was taken from the kitchen looking toward the western windows in the living room, with the windows and doors of the sunroom (in the west) to the left of the frame. The living room will have no doors, so that incredible view will be available to us from the kitchen/dining area as well....and the light (this was taken at 9:30 am) and, even in December, we are able to see how much natural light pours in.

As they will have finished boarding the roof today, this will be our last day of indoor snow...next...shingles, windows, doors and locks! 

I can imagine ourselves here in all seasons, all hours of the day, for many years to come. Every day seems a glorious affirmation of the initial dream and the many small steps that arrived us at this moment in our lives.
