Cold and Humble Start

Here's the first thing we built out on the site, the electrical hookup.  Beltrami Electric charges $8 a foot between the transformer and your house lpp and the house has to be within 250 ft of the loop to avoid voltage drop, which is worse than bad breath according to Beltrami.  So the loop and transformer are in the middle of the hay field as is the house.  The original site of the house was on the back forty which would of cost us close to $10K so now we're in the front 40 with all of the machinery and junked tires LOL  Oh well, they'll get moved... someday

Here's the loop, you can tell me how lovely it is in the front yard if you like, facing south

This is a picture of the 32 ft rafters. two foot on center for 48 ft.

Here's a view from the house to the septic tank looking west to the drain field

Here's a picture of the end of the well line to the house, looking east.  Its now below zero so the well driller isn't coming out until more reasonable weather, we'll be covering the area where the well will be with straw.  Usually in January there's a thaw of sorts, or at least moderating weather for a couple, three days, hopefully this year is no exception.  Doesn't look like much, the blue thing in the middle of the picture is the line and the pile of soil (yes, soil, its only dirt when its tracked in the house) is next to the trench

And here is a picture of the site superintendent looking very official
