First Inspection, Last Load of Logs and Tulikivi Meeting 

9/12/2013

 
Busy day today!  First thing this morning we met with Uwe about the Tulikivi soapstone stove that will be going in the house.  He has to make sure to get our stove ordered tomorrow so that it will be loaded on the next shipping container, as they container are 3-5 MONTHS in transit across the Atlantic.
We had our first inpsection today, so that the concrete can be poured tomorrow.  The inspection went just fine, no problems.
And the last load of logs went out this afternoon.  We had to choose a couple extra trees for Pat to take down in order to make a full load, so we have even a little more light coming in from the South now, which is really great.  The trees were down by the barn, so it doesn't make the area around the house feel any less forested, but more light will get through, especially in winter.  We ended up with four truckloads of logs that were sold to the mill.
