Sorry it's been so long since the last update -there's been a lot of behind the scenes work going on about the farm, not necessarily at the farm.
Pete has to get a contractor's bid on building the house and then as long as he [Pete] is the lowest bidder, the bank will allow him to be the contractor/builder. . . we think we can make that happen ;>}
Brother Sam sent a laser level and Pete rough surveyed for the planned home site. As soon as the building loan is secured, we'll have a professional surveyor site the property. At this point, estimate for "breaking ground" is the end of June!
Check out our farmhouse kitchen! Pete spent a few days last week at brother David and Priscilla's home in Florida. They graciously gave us the refrigerator, double oven, a microwave as well as a dishwasher! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! And if that's not enough . . .
