Changes are happening quickly at the site now. The house is really starting to show it’s character and design now. We arrived to see the entry road and roundabout black top completed and the turret roof close to completion. All ducting for HVAC is done, with plumbing and electrical to start very soon. The beautiful structural truss beams are in place and windows are on site to be installed within days. Once that is well underway, the front door and garage doors will be delivered. Roofing is underway, so all these pieces coming together means we are weeks away from being “dried in”….meaning the house is sealed from the weather and can even be heated. You can see our well head in one picture below–it’s at the center of the roundabout. The well pump will be lowered and this round area will have a rock wall build to create a planting area (or maybe a place for a cool statue?)

We also took a day trip to the Boreas Pass (Como to Breckenridge) to see the Fall colors before the Aspen trees lose their leaves. You’ll also see some pictures from that outing below. Colorado is glorious during the Fall!
