Septic system goes in

You can tell by the dry dirt that this picture was taken a week or so ago. Pete's Backhoe Service (Pete is featured in the hole with the tank) did a fantastic job getting the tank in and tying it into the drain field. Won't be long now...

Hardwood floors have been installed (wormy maple - same wood as main house but in random widths). Some painting has ben done. We are still on track to have it finished by the end of the month.

It's getting closer to completion

First shot shows the back of the cottage. I decided to tuck the stairs under the porch since the laundry is in the basement, and that will keep them out of the weather. The porch ceilings turned out very nice with the tongue and groove pine . I need to find some type of protective stain that can be applied without masking too much of the grain. The last shot is a view of the house from the back of the cottage.
