It all starts

This is the week the Eco House starts

As we get ready to start the eco house, I can't help but reflect on where we started and where we have gotten.

The concept and planning for the eco house started last December. Since then the teams have been assembled, hundreds of hours have been spend planning, meeting, and dare I day procrastinating.

Stephen and I have a few more pieces of the puzzle to put together. We need an electrician, drywaller and painter. So far we have an electrician for a day, but we really need an electrician for 3 days.

This week the materials are delivered to the fair. Thursday morning is when the fun begins. I will probably spend the morning at the job site.

I keep thinking we are missing something. You would think that with a team of 5 architects, two general contractors, one government agency and many folks donating time and materials, I wouldn't think this.

I suppose at this point if we are missing something we will just have to make due.

This years eco house will truly be a sight to behold. The home will produce all of the energy needed on site. I suspect it will draw a fairly large crowd and get lots of questions

As the project unfolds, I will post pictures and video.
