Subject: RE: BS: New Beginnings - new foundation (maeve & TL)
Returning to the yurt... We're hoping the doors will all be installed tomorrow for sure, since another storm is on the way for the weekend. That will leave the bathroom walls, basement slab, and basement windows and doors to be installed. After that, we're on our own installing exterior trim, as weather allows.

We'll have the super efficient woodstove set up and insulated pipe run through the roof. TL has already built a raised base for the woodstove, so it's now my job to pick up the fireproof layer and tile it over. The woodstove will provide our heat and serve as our cookstove for the winter.

Once the basic wiring and plumbing are in and working, the cellulose insulation will be blown into the walls, and a vapor barrier added.
