Nearly there

The weather has been raging on several occasions today with windy squalls and lashing rain, but I’ve been indoors all day continuing the work on my house plans. And today was very fruitful as I managed to sort out the roof, finish ‘building’ the end walls right up to roof level and also add the final architectural details in the form of the bedroom windows and the door into the grenier.

That means that I’ve almost achieved my initial objective of completing the model of my house as it is now, from which I’ll be able to create all the initial drawings and plans that I’m going to need. Here are some final shots taken at the end of the day.

All that’s left now is to add the foundations, or what I imagine the foundations to be as I’ve no idea what they are actually like, and I’m sure that no other living person does either, and then place the house on terrain that’s modelled to look as closely as possible to how it actually does at present.

And with a bit of luck I’ll manage to do those things tomorrow, although after a call from Wim, the first job will be to move Philippe’s Citius from his new hangar, which has been damaged by the strong winds, into an adjacent barn. Should be a nice start to the day in the wind, rain and mud 😉
