The top is on! Of the basement, that is. I've been told that some of the wall panels have been delivered, so this week they should start to go up. And the house will start to take shape. Wow. This IS fun. Yes, I'm loving it.

West end of basement. Opening to left is sliding glass doors; opening to right is a window; opening in middle will be closed. The house is really not that big -- 17' wide in fact.

A 1-1/2 wide.
