At the end of our road, we avoided hitting this turtle that we then helped cross to the river (we hope that's where s/he was headed). We were going to the farmer's tailgate market at Mars Hill College, the closest to us of the dozens of markets in this area. Mars Hill is just a few minutes away. Lots of great local produce, baked goods, and crafts. We got rosemary fig goat cheese and organic broccoli.
We learned this week that LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams are stronger, straighter and better for longer spans than conventional materials. And these floor trusses are also a good design because of the web form inside of them.

Things are looking really great- I'm so happy for you guys and can't wait to throw HDS and Nicci into the car to visit. DD- don't you remember lama-beams from your construction days? Oh- maybe that was lima beans? Hope to see you soon. Take care- safe travels
Great pics! How cool to see the whole process from the start. Can't wait to see it all finished.
We have a pretty excellent state farmer's market in Raleigh. Lots of fresh veggies and when you buy your christmas tree from them, they put it on the stand for you. Local farmers are rad.
