		<description><![CDATA[I have been sleeping in the new house for a week now. Not sure who is happiest about moving out of the cold and cramped camper, me or the cats. The house is beautifully warm, light and spacious. It takes very little to heat and the wood stove is fired up twice a day mostly [...]]]></description>

The plumbers have been working hard yesterday and today and we have water available.

		<description><![CDATA[The solar system has been designed and installed by Bob Hussey of Solartec in Waterville. The original plan was for a wind turbine as well, but lack of funds has prevented that. The top of the hill was chosen as the best spot for wind and also has the best sun exposure as I do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The kitchen, living room and bathroom are floored with porcelain tile. Mike Gale, Sr assisted his sons with the tiling.
