so this is the house at B. as far as it got. not so much. it was at this point that they began trying to formalize the preliminary planning to have a frame of the building delivered. Plan a, b and c and maybe there were more, but as they got down to the exact numbers, it turned out that though the different places had assured they could deliver, they could not. The road was not wide enough. No place to maneuver, no place to turn. Trees would have to come down. So, ok....then they would proceed from scratch. But then, Jenny's job changed. Her job had been 3 days a week but now they needed to change it to 5. Right at that point, Fate was needing additional tutors for his "autism". She would pay for that with the additional 2 days. Things came to a standstill. When i quit using the expensive storage unit, Alyssia and i brought everything from it here and spread it out, covered it with a HUGE TARP until i could go through it and slowly we took some things to her house in Oroville, let some go, put some in those tubs i talk about. There were Many moving boxes. Just left there. Under the tarp. Since then, and then through the Virus months, pretty much no one looks in that direction. But just recently, i have decided. Stated that decision that i am ok where i am. All effort and money now should go toward preparing Campsite A for Alyssia to be here.
And so.
What to do with the eyesore?
and also...more than that now. It's where the food Garden will be. A lot of time will be spent here. And though we haven't seen any sign of such, it is wise to assume that there are still rattlesnakes living on this Hill. Tarps on the ground creep me out. When we were there yesterday, Emrie wanted to play on the beams. I was not ok with that. Today i pulled off the tarp that is HUGE. 50ft x something, sodden with pooled water. Under, all the soggy cardboard which is unsightly, BUT will serve to prevent weeds* from growing. It's flattened. Spread out. The tarp, i'll drag it onto the road and fold/roll it up. Useful for ?Something? someday. Along the front beam i will nail up some fencing to act as trellis for snow peas and Peas that will be planted in pots. It will become
pretty. Maybe some Morning Glories. or, even SweetPeas? And a good place for Emrie to play.
and so, we go.
*which are grasses and all manner of plant people who just want to live here too.
