Yurt Home Page
The beginnings of framing up the oval shaped office (Bush isn't the only one who'll have one!). The office connects the Concentric Yurt to the Bathroom/Utility Yurt.
Grace Marie's first visit to Tug Hollow. My first, ever so sweet grandchild.

Well, the leach field is in.
The individual laminations for the office ridge beam are 1/2" thick and needed to be 20' long. We had to splice two "sticks" together. The splice is a diaganal cut that is 6" long. There are 17 lamination layers.
The office ridge beam, moved off the jig (Thanks, Ian). Its horizontal length is 18-1/2'.
The cupola frame for the Bathroom Yurt -- from the underside and covered with a plastic tarp.

Another view of the "oval office" ridge beam. Brian is securing the Concentric end of the beam.
Lot's of people drive by slowly. My friends, Fiona and Hamilton, suggested that these people should be invited up. This is the sign that Hamilton made for me.
My Dad, Melvin, came up to see the ridge beam in place.
My brother, Steve, brought Dad up. It was a beautiful day.
Stopping and chatting with Brian.
The wall framing for the office and the gallery -- multiple angles.
