| Porch progress |
 |
| Other side |
 |
| E's handiwork |
 |
| More of E's handy work: the insulatable door header |
 |
| And more |
 |
| Almost 70 years exactly between when the nails were driven in the weatherboard [clapboard] [1942] to when the screws were driven for the porch [2012] |
 |
| A's handiwork: the hurricane straps |
 |
| Woops, where's the door? |
 |
| Woops, where're the the windows? |
 |
| There it is ! |
 |
| Frieze blocka being fitted |
 |
| E getting it right |
 |
| Working into the night on the facia |
 |
| ...and the barge rafters |
 |
| E driving through Wyoming: oh surprise, it's snowing and blowing |
 |
| Indeed |
 |
| Might look like the middle of nowhere but it isn't |
 |
| The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet [wheels], Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say [actually I can: Philomath!]. ...apologies to JRR Tolkien |
 |
| Reduced speed and blowing snow |
 |
| Windpower [didn't get a picture of the even bigger wind farms in Kansas] |
 |
| Sunshine in the distance |
 |
| The road [still] goes ever on and on... Door to door: 1723 miles [2773 km] of which we did 1213 miles [1952 km] this day |
 |
| First time over the continental divide |
 |
| Once more with feeeeling |
 |
| It is sunny at the coast from time to time |
 |
| ...but not in the valley |
 |
| Smowy construction |
 |
| The view out the great room window |
