I Just killed a tree (the house project)
Or trees.
Yes I'm a bastard:
Our project started yesterday by taking down the trees on the lot. The house should be ready next year...

I had to kill even more trees on the lot. And even more after that. And those buggers seem to grow so fast that I had to kill a whole bunch of them. Hopefully I don't have to do it anymore.
The house project has moved a bit since last update...
We build a small shed for the firewood. We measured it so that it could fit about two winters worth of firewood. The amount of we chopped off our lot would've lasted for about 4 winters
Then the lot god cleaned up of all the stubs of the trees and other crap Also the base structure were delivered to the lot.
(Yes it is a 480 in the backround!! )
Then they installed the foundation:

The story continues:
Oh yes boys!(and girls) IT'S A DIGGER!
Lots of pipes and stuff.
The base is now done - they'll install the house soon!
And here is the house. In pieces.
Oh yes boys!(and girls) IT'S A MASSIVE CRANE!
The house was in 4 pieces. You kinda attach them like lego-blocks.
The garage door in mid-air.
It is coming up!
This was done on the first day it arrived.
The roof came on the next day.
Currently the house is looking like this
And today we started to build the garage for our cars. The thing is we currently got 4 cars... Got to get rid of atleast one
