In the midst of a whole lot of change — buying 27 acres of unimproved land, selling our house, moving into a rental, moving Mary out of her studio, trading our car in for a truck — despite some pains in the moment (literally: we’ve been sleeping on an air mattress!) we have so much conviction that this all makes sense.
As we just start to embark on this journey towards building (as general contractor!) our dream home out where we have space all around, we are already learning so much. Fast forward 6 months, 1 year, 2 years from now — assuming we continue capturing our experience and learnings along the way, what an amazing artifact this will be. Icing on the cake: along the way our friends and family — maybe even strangers — can follow along, too.
Now our focus is on finalizing designs and a site plan, while getting to know our land (what we’re calling Stone Bridge) better along the way. For now I’ll leave you with some glimpses into the land we immediately knew could be home, and next up I’ll plan to expand on the process we’ve used for finalizing build designs and other pre-requisites for a full site plan.
