Dali gets Ditched! I get Framed!

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Temperatures are around freezing at night, and 70ยบ in the daytime. Perfect for working - hot days coming soon!

The irrigation ditch at the top of the property began running yesterday. It's a main ditch, or mother ditch, or, as they say around here, acequia madre. My dog, Dali, who's about 8 months old, has never seen anything like this. She was a little hesitant at first, but now she is Water Dog:



In the two weeks since my last post (sorry, fans) there's been major progress on the addition.
A few pictures will bring you up to date:
Wall #1 up, #2 almost ready...

Wall #2. Note the bedroom window view...

Wall #3...

...and the roof framing.
We'll have some kind of roof and walls by the end of the week!
Doghouse. My design... Hey, Dali likes it!

Tub/shower, delivered and waiting...
