Domestic Activities

 Now that I look back on the end of that summer, I am amazed at the progress on the house! But at the time it seemed to take forever! It was hard to keep to a temporary camping-style life, so out came some domestic anchors... the sewing machine, for instance.

 Laundry, always there. Will be there all of our lives.

 You can see at the bottom of the photo there were some stamps and ink pads sneaking in under the laundry....

 

RV chores. 

 

Speaking of RV chores, sometimes construction had to be RV focused. Here you see a thickly insulated box/mini shed that kept our water and plumbing hookup from freezing in the winter. Sort of a miniature well house.

The one big event of the year... taking fiddle classes at the fairgrounds. We were constantly cutting out social events, holidays, and vacations to focus every chunk of free time on construction, but the fiddle workshop qualified as "school!"
