Build Day #36: She's all ours!

Image
E komo mai [welcome], Lanikaimakani!  What an adventure we had yesterday!  Our little house made her way from Johanna’s building site to her new home in Laupahoehoe, winding down side roads, barreling along the highway at 35mph, and climbing up, up, up to her resting place! Alas, it’s not her final one, as the trailer's weld gave out in two places at the bottom of the driveway. For now she is where she can catch her breath, await for the repair, and anticipate her culminating 180 degree rotation. Johanna, Bill, and JC were an awesome team, working in lockstep to get her level and hooked up for night #1.  Mother Nature approves, we think, given the rainbow she threw our way at day's end. I'm particularly happy with the bed and the loft. Making it was not a highlight, but it’s actually possible to sit up up without hitting your head, which apparently I was worried about. And there is plenty of space for our various iPad, cell phone, and drinking water needs. Grateful
