If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Nice that you are documenting your dream project and thanks for sharing. Your framers aren't texting or takin a smoke break every 15 mins like the kids I hire. I wish I had pics form the time I got my property and now 10 yrs later. You'll be amazed at how fast a decade whizzes by.
Do nature a favor, spay/neuter your pets and any weird friends or relatives.

Bob, more and more businesses are not allowing cell phones at work. There's a reason for that. My nephew works for the railroad, and their policy is that if you don't leave your cell phone in your vehicle then you're fired.

Walls going up. Thanks for the kind comments. I thought it would be neat to document this build. ![](http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq235/304cj5/Mobile%20Uploads/imagejpeg_2_zpsm7jmgqce.jpg) ![](http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq235/304cj5/Mobile%20Uploads/imagejpeg_3_zpsnl7hibvp.jpg)

![](http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq235/304cj5/Mobile%20Uploads/FB_IMG_1435889164115_zpsgenfegdn.jpg) Looks really nice......good job!!! You might want to expedite your grass planting and water, water, water. Don't want that nice graded soil going into that beautiful pond in a down poor.

One other important question. Did your plans include an additional bed room for visiting PBF members? ![laugh laugh](/images/graemlins/default/laugh.gif) That place looks too nice to keep it all to yourself. ![grin grin](/images/graemlins/default/grin.gif) That being said, when we remodeled out 1960's era house, we took it from a 4 bedroom to a 2 bedroom............. no need to encourage adult children that might get into difficulties to move back in............... just saying.

Haha. There will be a bonus room and bath above the garage that we will finish later. You would have to fight my daughter's for it though.
