RRRZZZRR

Wouldn't this be a blast out on the dirt roads of Terlingua!?!?

Workin' - July 2009

July 2009, we planned a trip out to Terlingua Ranch with a huge load of building supplies. A couple that we are friends with accompanied us to help and see how much we could get built in a week.

We arrived on Saturday, the temps were around 108 degrees! It was disappointing to learn that the restaurant was closed, the pool and bathhouse was closed and we had to drive about 45 minutes to get ice, not exactly what we had planned when we bought our land and planned this work trip. 

Here we are on Saturday afternoon taking the forms off the slab. 

This was where we were on Sunday afternoon. 

It's always exciting to see the walls go up! They seem to go up so fast, then it slows down as the roof, siding and windows start to go on.

By Sunday afternoon we had the 4 stud walls standing. 

July - 2009

I'm starting to think that someone might be building a cabin in the middle of the Chihuahuan desert!
