Some then-and-now shots (2008-2011)

The chicken coop, as it used to be ...

... and as it stands now. The half-demolished part,
on the left, will become the covered sitting or summer
dining area, while the part on the right will remain
essentially as is, though with a lowered roofline,
to afford a better view of the valley
from anywhere in the courtyard.

The stable (future living room) as we first saw it in 2008 ...

... and in February 2011 - with subfloor concrete slab in place,
and ceiling beams gone, soon to be replaced with
new oak beams that will bear the guest room floor.



An original truss (this one was in the attic,
where the  future master bedroom en-suite will be), in 2008 ...



... and the new reproduction truss, in the same spot
but higher, now awaiting insulation and covering.
