Isn't it cute?

Our tractor garage is almost done.  We think "cute" is an appropriate adjective.

The kitchen continues to come together by leaps and bounds.  We had no way of knowing, based on a 4" square sample of the flooring, how good it would look next to the cabinets.  This pic was taken while standing in the pantry.  As promised, the wood floor was done yesterday.

A little additional flair was needed, so we picked these cabinet pulls instead of knobs or straight pulls.

 And, of course, we like to post a bonus forest walk photo.  Below is not a shaggy elephant leg in the snow, but rather a fabulous yellow birch.  We've really gained deep appreciation for this lovely species.
