Snow snow snow!

 We have had plenty of snow now, at home and in the ski area. What a relief!

The animals don’t massively enjoy it

Here are the cows enjoying a sunny interlude.

Each one has an egret beside it, we presume they are there eating bugs and stuff, we only see them at certain times of year, so I suppose they are migrating.

Snow has finally arrived!

 Sticky out stones trimmed back (though we still have the scary part of removing the acrows…)

Moving the table, chair, keyboard and freezer in to the section we have done (to the extent of new subfloor upstairs and prepared walls for further steps later) so we can do the same in the next section…

Brushing off the walls ready for eventual hempcrete insulation (there’s a lot to do before that though…

I’m not sure health and safety would find this to be acceptable working conditions!
