One Seasons Work

Back in June, I posted about starting my hermit cabin in the woods out at the quarry. Well, I didn't find as much time to work over the summer as I had hoped*, but I got a pretty rockin' start.

As you can see from the janky panorama picture above, I've got 3 walls started (although barely, in one case), which gives me a pretty good idea of the footprint. The back wall is above waist height almost everywhere which feels pretty good. The two-sided walls are going quicker than I thought (since it is essentially building two walls (one outward and one inward facing)). I've only been able to devout chunks of time in 2 and 3 hour increments, and it still seems to be plodding along.

All in all, while I wish it was going faster, I'm super pleased with what I have so far. I can't wait for next building season (or, if I'm lucky, to find another pleasant weathered work day this year*). Oh, and since it has been a tradition on my other stone projects at the quarry, here's my + project.

Looking good! But did you remember to run wires through there, 'cause I don't see an electrical outlet (I don't really foresee you as the typewriter-kind of bearded hermit with leaves and bones stuck in his beard)...
