Wow, it's been a while. A lot has been going on during the days of Frazier. Mostly, activity has centered around the construction of the house. I have been busy with work recently attending our annual VR conference down in Boise and then going through an administrative review following a brief absence of work for the annual mule deer hunt. I will have to refer you to The Gregory Family Basket for pictures from that adventure. Two of our party were successful with two nice bucks. The rest of us will have to wait until next time. It was good being in hunting camp again.

The saga continues with the house. Real progress is being made as you can see by the following pictures of the construction. Russ, Rob, and I have been working every weekend trying to get the deck completed. After that is done, we'll move inside to begin work on the flooring, finish work, cabinetry, etc. We are hopeful that we'll be ready for a January move in.

Update: I have posted links to other blogs of family note on the side bar of the site. Take some time to peruse if yo
u get a chance.

The slash pile has been burned!! I was pretty happy about that after the torture I endured trying to chip it with an industrial chipping machine. Burn baby burn.















Here's the deck. We're about 3/4 the way there with the decking. It's hard to see but the deck is about 11 feet in width and 45 feet long. It is going to be party deck central. Can't wait to bbq.
We got it piped for gas baby so no havin to change out the propane tank!





























Here is a view from inside looking from the kitchen out to the great room. All of the windows, electrical, hvac, and plumbing have been installed. The drywallers have been mudding and taping and will hopefully be done by the end of this week.















Here is a view from across the way. The roof is on and the siding is underway. Things are coming together.
