Just in time for our four year anniversary, we have moved in to our tiny dwelling. But wait-it doesn't feel so tiny! Somehow we have manifested a trick of the mind, perhaps due to great design, that makes it feel spacious and absolutely wonderful. After two years a lot has been made, but of course there is more to do.
There will be window trim, with dark and tight-grained cedar, drawers and their respective drawer fronts, book shelves, a deck, and a tiny outhouse -these are a few things that still need doing. But hey, after the crazy summer of money generating the fall is a great time to build.
Not only are we moved in, but we actually moved the whole home as well. Not far, perhaps 300 feet. We had a backhoe and a one tonne truck help us along. The backhoe had to transplant a baby fir tree and rip up some stumps that were in the way. It then pivoted the caravan into position so that the truck could hook it up. And away we went...very sturdy and little to none accidental rubbing of the tires which we had good reason to be worried about -with only a centimetre clearance in the sketchiest of places!
I find it hard to express how happy we are with the result. We own it, debt free.
I hope you all have your own wonderful projects percolating along...I will try to get photos up.
Best Wishes,
Bailey and Scott.
