Welcome to the Whistlepig!!





Hello from Jessi and Dan - we've set this up so we can keep everyone abreast of our adventures in cordwood building!! The former website isn't super easy to update and would need to be moved, so we've changed venues.

As of July 4th, 2007, we have finished the sand pad that our foundation will float on and are ready to start on digging the forms for the wall bases. The plumbers will come soon and set up the drain to the septic tank and the outside spigots. Then we'll be able to pour concrete and have the stove people come - only 10 months after we originally thought we'd be able to!!

Dan has been a sand moving machine - here he is with his trusty wheelbarrow. And here is the finished pad - way more sand than anyone wants to move!!
