moving in...

I wasn't able to go up to the bach to document the last steps, because I was back at work. But the weekend we went up and had our first look at the (mostly) finished new home. And we were very happy! It looks great, and I am very happy that I extended the deck to three times the original size - that will be our main living room! The skirting will be next - will we have wood? Or a hedge? Or planter boxes? Hmmmm...


Now with deck, roof and spouting :)



When we arrived, the floor varnish was still not 100% dry, so we opened all windows, and put a heater in at full blast. Rest assured, not long and it was dry enough to put stuff in. We got everything out of the car, and also shifted gear from the shed to the bach. We had to assemble a few things, but that went quick and easy. In the evening, we already had the kitchen corner pretty much operational, and made grilled cheese in the new oven.


The still very unfinished interior. We just chucked stuff in at the moment...



We tried to sleep inside, but the smell of the varnish was so bad, that we both got a headache, and felt like we were gradually poisoned, so we just moved the futon out on the deck, and slept there. It was amazing to see the stars from our "bed" - just like in old times when I was in scouts :)


Next morning
