We finally got our french drain in. We dug a channel, laid down some street cloth, put some plastic up against the wall, pushed in a perforated pipe, and covered it with gravel and pine needles to keep out the mud.
My sister Gloria came over and helped put up plastic around the bottom of the back walls.
Max showing us how to nail up the cedar shake shingles he made for us on his lumber mill.
This is what it's going to look like when it's all finished.
We were sure glad to get all the windows in and the tar paper all around.
Charles stapling up the last of the tarpaper around the eves.
