Slowly but Surely

I'm slowly getting my running stamina back! It makes me feel good to see my time getting faster and my mileage getting longer. Kev's hard headedness and my stubbornness caused a small tiff Sunday morning. So I went for a run. It's truly my therapy. I knocked out 3 miles with 11.30 minute average.

Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
