Going to try for a steel frame and do an infill with cordwood, bottles, and cans for the walls. Have about everything needed but the cement.

Got another 10 by 30 foot area to go and can start on digging and setting rock in for the foundation, then bolting steel together.

Got dark out there so had an excuse to call it a night, at least from clearing out the privet, briers, and vines as well as piling up rocks.

Still digging at the privet, briers, and vines. Getting lots closer though. Almost time to put the blade on the tractor and start leveling.

Been out front clearing more of the area I’m gonna build the work shed in. Still not back to full strength after the long bout with the flu.

Let last nights fire go out around midnight so I could clean it out this am. Didn’t get too cool till after daybreak.

Cleaned the wood stove flue this morning before breakfast. Did it that early mainly so I could build a fire to warm it up in here. ;-)
