More screws. These are helping support the second floor.

To the second floor.

And over the bottles.

The shelf is a roll of wire that I cut to fit around the bottle tops.

Two days dry.

Not too pretty but sturdy and seems to have a fair insulating value.

The ladder.

Going up.

Nothing too precise but works just fine.

Some of the joints aren't too close but the braces bridge the gaps just fine.

The bottles from the inside.

just cut the greenhouse roof in half.

Sunlight on the inside of the door.

Crappy sand mix.

And the trailer end.

Really crappy looking at this point.

Bathroom and stove.

Starting to dig the back foundation

My modified saw blade.

Some folks see junk. I see building materials. In fact this is a pile of my house to be. ;-)

2x6x16's

And more of them.

Pieces of the old greenhouse wall. Never thought when I build it as a temp thing that it would last 20 years.

Bertha with another load of 2x6's

Wish I had more now. These are all gone.

Framing the second floor.

Getting it somewhat level.

Temp bracing.

Cat the water girl.
