Now that the insulation is in place, the last barrier to inhabitation is the stove. Technically 2 pieces, I suppose, as the stovepipe isnt here yet either.

We’ll be picking up the through-the-wall stovepipe kit either today or tomorrow, most likely. The stove is a bit complicated, given a combination of distance and being unable to get ahold of the guy who is storing it for us. We’ll figure it out, though.

In the meantime, we keep bringing vanloads of bins and boxes and small furniture, and sweeping and organizing and trying to keep the storage loft in check.

We’re closer. A lot closer. But we’re not quite there yet.
