It's a rainy weekend in Arkansas

There are around four ways to get to our property in the Ozarks. Two of them involve crossing "bridges" over a creek. The bridge is nothing more than a concrete structure that spans the creek. It has been raining at a steady clip for a couple of days. Below, you will see a picture of the bridge that we have to cross when coming in from one of the directions. We were going out from our property when we saw this. We had to turn around and go out another way.

The siding and trim have been painted

Thought it would be nice to see pictures from another perspective. These are views of the house from the south side... The studio, dining room, living room, master bedroom, and a long view down the side of the house. They will do insulation and sheetrock this week.

Varmints

We've had a close encounter with a varmint near our property. This picture is of what we think was the snake crossing the road. The snake appeared to be 4 to 6 feet in length. This is a plain-bellied water snake.

Also, here is another picture of our house. The internal wiring is done and the plumbing is close to complete. We are wired for the 21st century with internet access in every room and "cable" tv (of course, living in the boonies, everything is availble only via satellite).

They've put the railing on the porch

Which is where we will spend our dwindling years in our rocking chairs! :-)

Stained Glass Windows

Here are the three stained glass windows in the dining room.

Spring has sprung, along with DST

Spring is here. Things are greening up.

The siding is almost totally on and framing of the inside walls is being done.
