went in Feb.
15, with the
help of Pams
dad!
Building
our Green Bamboo
Home
Finishing our
Bamboo
House!
Still lots to
do before we
can move
in...
Shaun has
ground the
bolts down to
where they just
need a
Bamboo cap put
on to hide the
metal ...
Lots of trim
will be put on
too...
Having a
skylight is a
great
addition!
Roof got
installed. Nice
metal aluminum
one.
Pams mom is
helping around
the yard
too!
Plumber and
Electrician
working off and
on....
After that we
will have an
inspection,
then be able to
start closing
the interior
walls!
Inside
kitchen wall
with a little
plumbing and
wiring
done...
We put another
coat of stain
on to help
protect it from
the sun and
rain.
We will need to
do that every
few years, as
most houses
need...
February
20...
We put in 3
tons of
gravel...
See the start
of the patio.
My dad put that
in, using
recycled
plastic lumber.
Looks
great!
We also decided
to coat the
deck with a
permanant slip
proof paint
(not eco
friendly) but
we needed
something to
withhold the
wet climate,
and last as
long as
possible...
This is what it
looked like
inside!
With some of
the electrical
and plumbing
done.
We wanted to go
with a
composting
toilet, and
gray water
system, but as
of when we
built the
house, everyone
is forced to
have a septic
system...
Exterior

We got the
water tank put
together.

installed,
pipes attached,

up....
20,000 gallon
water catchment
system!
Filters and

This is the
fire plug and

from before
