Geothermal Trench
When they were about 200 feet from the house, they ran into an underground "river", as it was described to me over the phone. It turns out this just means there was more gravel in the clay and water was running through it. However, they need to head in a different direction to avoid it, so they took a sharp turn and headed east.

The back of the house looks kind of cool through the trees, almost like it is in the middle of a woods instead of a meadow.

The only change to the front of the house is a grayer color to the Trombe walls as they continue to get them smooth enough for the high-adsorptivity, low-emissivity film.

While we were out there, Karen and Tim and kids stopped by after Mass. The girls looked cute in their dresses.

Michael enjoyed the view from my shoulders.
What a smile!
We ate lunch on the picnic table (how peaceful!) and then got to work on the painting. We were able to get the ceilings done in both bedrooms and my office.
