Yesterday we brought Bryan's brother, Todd, and his family up to see the house. Not only were they impressed with our progress (we now have deck and interior framing!) and the beautiful view, but we got some nature lessons as well -- we saw (and handled) a small garter snake (only about a foot long), and ran across some coyote scat. That's only a fraction of the wildlife there; we're looking forward to our view being more than just trees! And, as it turns out, our view also includes a mountaintop. The question is, is it Mt. Hood or Mt. Jefferson? Bryan thinks it's Mt. Jefferson. He could be right; what do you think?

| The mountain is barely visible just under the corner of the roofline (you can see it better if you click on the photo). |

| New interior framing: The kitchen's back wall (including a counter-height hole for the pass-through to the pantry, just to the right of center). Behind the kitchen are the office (left) and pantry (right), and behind that the stairwell and master suite. |

| Framing for the entry, mudroom and mudroom bath. |
