That's no moon, it's a house!

 Continuing with our plan of "let's accelerate this thing", we spent the following months--as the poets would say--busting our asses.

We set up a table, and realized that having a level surface to put things on will really change your life:

We built a roof over our porch, swapped out our shed-style doors for a single, more solid door:

Which brings us to today--all the rest of the posts on this blog are retrospectives, entered all on the same day to catalog the ups and downs (and really, really downs) that have brought us to where we are. Since I'm basically talking to myself at this point, I make no guarantees about when I'll post more, but I'll try to keep uploading new pictures and updates as we keep moving from "freezing to death in the woods" to "a comfortable homestead."
