New gate built for RV Port

I can't say it has been cool here at the lake. I can tell you that we have been busy as bees remodeling everything. As hot as it is we get up every morning before the heat and start on our projects. 
As you know we got our septic tank in and now we are planning out and building our home away from the road. Sherri has been working feverishly over the plans for a new "Tiny House"...which by the way is looking real nice. Don't know if any of you watch "Tiny Houses" on TV and if you do you will know what we are talking about. Along with the tiny house we pull behind the truck we will have a tiny house here that we can share space with when we are off the road. 
We will have a den...kitchen...laundry room...craft room...bedroom...bathroom. All of this in a 14 x 24 building. I know that sound small but it all fits!
I will be posting pictures of our progress in the next few days...if I don't have a heat stroke!
We are really enjoying our time here now that we don't have to go off site to dump our tanks. Having the septic tank is so great. Who would ever thunk it. This much excitement over a septic tank! How funny is that?
Hey better hang it up here. I need another cup of coffee and then it is back outside to get some more done...

Septic Tank Going In


They showed up around 9:00 with a lot of equipment


This should be enough tank


Took the old screened porch down


We will be putting a new screened room here


Trenching in the yard lines 


The yard lines had to come through the back of the RV port


Even with all this going on we still have to have school


Today they are putting in our Septic Tank. We have been waiting for a long time to get this done. The time has come and we sure are glad to get it done.

We are also tearing down the old screened in porch. We will put a screen porch on the front of our "Tiny House" Sherri is working very hard to design the interior of our little Casita behind the RV port. We will have a den...kitchen...laundry room...bedroom...and a bathroom. Also we will have two lofts for extra overnighters. I think it will be really nice as soon as we get it finished...

Back at the Lake

We arrived back at our lake property Tuesday afternoon and have been getting things back in order. We have the Internet connection... the Direct TV...trash service and the mail to tend to before I could even think about getting online to post. 
We are doing some remodeling here to make this a better place to come to when we are not on the road. We are taking down our screen room under the RV port and rebuilding it on the front of our little house. Our little house was a storage shed we bought years ago and we turned it into a residence. If you have been watching "Tiny Houses" you know what I mean. It is working out real great for a place to live while we are at the lake and it gives us more room to move around in. We still live in the RV but with the house extension we don't feel as trapped.
We are also having a septic tank installed which will make a great bit of difference when we are here for long periods of time. We have been dumping at the State Park just a mile from the property and that was very inconvenient. 
This next week will be very busy for me. I have so much to do to get everything ready before we pull out again to head south...
