wall and roof panels

earth day

i completely forgot to mention that my green kit house arrived on earth day! how perfect!

good luck, sucker

...the last words spoken to me (in jest, i hope) from noah on the phone as the kit rolled away from him and toward me.

ryan asked if i got a lot of 'action shots' of the unloading... and here you go.

the truck

the kit

the inspection (nice ink)

the unloading

a man

a machine

a man, a machine and my straw walls

and i got a boatload of crap (which i am sure is only the beginning) from both of them about being the g.c.
the thermasteel panels are en route and should be here tomorrow.

and finally...

jimmy is a good man. and ryan keeps me laughing.

go go gadget green

i got an email this morning from noah saying...

Jen,
I spoke with a researcher who is looking for "green" projects around Boston for a new Discovery Channel show called Planet Green. They are interested in your house. They would highlight you and your in-progress house, with discussion of the green aspects to your home - everything, including the kitchen sink!

of course my first reaction was "if mike rowe is hosting it then i have already died and am on my way to heaven." well, it's steve thomas (aka this old house)... at least my domestic bliss won't be in jeopardy if this comes to be a reality.

the kit and stuff is coming, gulp!, on tuesday. here are some pics of part of my house sitting at their shop waiting to go on a truck to jimmy's shop.

rafters!

and, uh, stuff!

behold! the bible of noble

...sent to me to by noah, to study and learn from. a second one also arrived, so that i might spread the teachings.

like glass!

unfortunately i only had my cell phone with me, but here is my gleaming studio floor! i love it. i hope the upstairs floor looks this good!


thank you ainsley!
