Evolve Builders have been busy! Here's what we saw earlier this week (in no particular order): We watched the Perseid meteor shower. What plant species is this? The entrance to our construction site. Call before you enter. One of the crew had his blue van by the parking lot. SE corner Driveway leading to the … Continue reading August 13-15, 2023 Update
Yes, PN has had a retirement countdown timer running since the Fall of 2022. TS is ready. PN is ready. Release the hounds! Eventually, I might compile these 100-some-odd graffiti activities into an artwork. It's how I cope with the insanity of being a high school science teacher. PN.
...and then it's July 2023. The clean up begins. TS and I clean up our GTA condominium suite, follow the mantra (when in doubt, throw it out), and begin rental-accomodation hunting (up on the North Bruce Peninsula). To casual Bruce Trail hikers: please respect the signage for our property. Expect to encounter heavy machinery at … Continue reading 2 months of contract teaching left…
PN is grateful that TS is recovering so well post knee-surgery. TS is becoming an Fe-womyn with all of those various (borderline sadistic) physiotherapeutic exercises (Gus [from the clinic], if you're reading this, I don't know whether to thank you or curse you). While I want to spend a week at the site (during our … Continue reading Happy December 25th!
We’re optimistic that our well will be sunk before the deep snow piles up (see image, courtesy of Evolve Builders Group [Melanie Scott, designer]). Authorized personnel? BCB&B is now ready for your constructive business!
When TS & I move up to the peninsula, we expect to pay a lot for broadband internet service. Off-grid. Our property line is at least ~1000 m from the last utility pole. Link to CBC article.
You are looking at my 2nd attempt at making a full-sphere image of our driveway at the build-site. My iDevice did its very best at knitting together images into an image bubble. Yes, PN is wearing red wooly socks in his Birkenstocks. TS is accepting of my fashion crimes. PN & TS also cut away … Continue reading October 2022 360-degree image
I'm looking forward to this contract year (as a high school science teacher). Would I rather be on the property clearing the build site? Would I rather be pulling out deadfall and Widowmakers on our 10Ha woodlot? Would I rather be maintaining the tractor/ATV trails with my Sthil saws & cutters? Would I rather be … Continue reading Another year of stand-up philosophy!
…leads to a roughed-in build site! See the attached images, eh. Revision: Ah. So THAT’S how one inserts images. Oy. After 4 weeks of forestry, TS & PN roughed out the future build-site. PN & TS’s build-site is on the other side of the rock outcrop (that is on the left side of the image). … Continue reading 4 weeks of harvesting, logging, and chipping…
Today will be an indoor session at Mountain Trout Camp (MTC). I’m looking forward to finding out how MS’s wolf-pack enjoy the canine treats (test version 1 and 2). TS wanted to ensure MS received the perishable chocolate-peanut-butter-banana-upside-down cake (as it’s still in its pan). Our recently-purchased deep-cycle battery has been trickle-charging since yesterday evening … Continue reading Lush, heavy rain, and cooler than our last woodlot work-session.
