Pakenham visit and build view.

Nicola, Dave, Rick and I went to Pakenham for a weekend to visit Mark and Emma and view the progress of their new build. 

 

We arrived Friday evening, when it was already dark

so had to wait until the next day

to appreciate the beauty of

 

White Lake, where they are cottaging until they can move into the new house (hopefully by March)

The new build is enclosed, windows and doors in, well and septic completed, in floor radiant heating, electrical and plumbing in.

The porch will be screened with a view of the septic area and their bush.

 

Cathedral ceilinged front entrance with stairs to the second floor.

The second floor has the master bedroom with ensuite, coffee and sitting area

and a deck.

 

Epic rocks scattered around the property.

 

Mark, with the help of friends, will be building the workshop but for now it is storing various vehicles and 

windows.

Enough work, time for a nap

 

 

and then a walk

around the roaring metropolis of White Lake.

Not sure why but it has a John Deere sign on the door (pic taken for Heather)

 

Evening on White Lake.

 

A fabulous local artisan pizza and games of cards rounded off the day.
