Movin' On Up!

A little bit of this,



a little bit of that.



That would be floor of the second story, as well as the view. Working with wood is no match for the joys (and sorrows) of working with earth. We are working with something called OSB. A strange product that OSB. Sinister even. Some say OSB is eco because it uses wood waste, whereas plywood is made of peeled logs. Others say OSB is evil because it contains glues and paraffins, and is made out of entire trees that are speed-grown in monocultural forests.



But the view, oh the view-- so we splash in the filth with the rest of the death kultur, building with glues and extruded wood products just to get a peek at the beautiful view.
I hear China is building a new coal burning power plant every five days. The OSB versus Plywood debate sorta shrinks in importance against that depressing concept.



The trusses were delivered today, perhaps next week we will install them.



In case you haven't noticed, it's not raining here. Not snowing, either. It' s the middle of November and the sky is electric blue.
