Siding is Going Up

This week we are getting our heating and cooling started on the new house.

We have decided to do geothermal.

It will cost more in the beginning, but it will pay off when it comes to the heating and air conditioning bills.



Big Ran is still putting siding on the back porch of the house.

It's coming right along.


I'm going to do another video later this week.

Doors and Door Handles

As I promised, here is a picture of the front door.

I haven't decided what color to stain it yet.
Originally I was going to stain it to match the floor of our Trex (wood looking) floors on the porch.
But we decided against the Trex flooring and went with cement floors.
So..............I'm not sure what to do with the color, maybe black to match the roof?



I wanted to show you the transom window above the door.

It's my favorite part.



We really like the darker bronze finish that some of the door knobs have right now, but we had to do the silver to match the silver lead in the cut glass design in the door.

When the sun shines through the front door in the late afternoon it makes beautiful rainbows all over the floor.


Here is a shot of the basement walk out.

We went with the silver to match the lead in the doors also.

We have decided the single lever door handle is so much easier to use than the regular door knob, so we are going to use these as much as possible. 


Right now Big Ran is still working on siding the eaves, he will be done with that this week.

Moving right along.


More later.......................Sally

Here's What's Happening At Our House

The building crew is done with the structure of the house.

All of the windows and most of the doors are in.
We still have a couple that are special ordered that aren't in yet.

Do you like the grids in the windows and some of the doors?
They are between the glass, the only way to go as far as cleaning them!




We are buttoning up for the winter now.

Big Ran is working on siding the eaves.



He's doing a great job.

Yes, it is nice to have a husband that can do that!



What are you guys doing around your place?


More later.............................Sally
