Summertime 2013

Its been a very short summer and with working all the time I have not had the chance to work as much on the house as I would like.  I added more sand to the perimeter of the foundation area and have also leveled the sand within the foundation perimeter.  The past few weeks I have taken an hour here and an hour there and have been slowly placing the high dense 2" styro around the perimeter for heat retention.

Beyond this I have also been clearing the future yard of trees to the side of the house.  Along with clearing these trees, I and my wife have been cutting and splitting the trees for firewood.  We have also been piling all the branches into piles for burning in the near future.  We have a combination of poplar (yellow tulip), oak, maple and birch trees within this area.
