Caterpillar
Striped caterpillar spotted while picking delicious blackberries out in the fields. It did not mention winter and the wooly bears are being mum.
Today I finished the sub-slab plumbing in the trenches of the butcher shop. It took longer than expected. Had I to do it all over again I would have made the butcher shop 6″ taller putting all that into the depth of the plumbing trench. I would also have made the trenches a foot wider. This would have given me both more room to work and made it much easier getting all the slopes right. I got it right but it took longer than it should have. Live and learn. Next time I’ll build the butcher shop just a little larger.

Next time?
Our thinking is this building will last maybe 1,000 years and then we’ll want to build a new improved version 2.0.
Seriously though, we have other projects on the drawing board. With each we improve our skills and techniques. It is an evolutionary process.
