We ended the drought!
Yes, yes, yes. Anyone from the southeast who has been worried about the lack of rain, you can rest easy – we have fixed it. Western NC has been in a bit of a drought lately, running 6 ½ inches behind normal. But have no fear, no less than seven minutes after we pulled the last truss off of our roof on Saturday, torrential rains began falling. According to our local paper “Heavy rains over the weekend brought needed relief to drought conditions in Henderson County, but torrential rainfall Saturday and again on Sunday dumped up to two inches in some parts of the county in a 24-hour period.” Heavy rain expected through Tuesday and no roof on the house… go figure. But we did manage to get the roof off and get our ever evolving living situation organized in the garage this weekend.The last truss coming down just before the rain Our new garage basecamp

nice to see shorty taking it easy while he ain't got no roof.
I am a youngish mother of 2, married to the love of my life who I met all the way back in middle school, living in a house we built together in mountains of western North Carolina.
I believe simpler is better and that there is a time and place for everything.
I blog for myself, but you are more than welcome to join. Each one documents a different adventure in my life:)
