The rare and elusive Desert Crane...

In fact, so rare and elusive is the Desert Crane that we only saw the "tracks" of the crane when we visited the property Friday evening. Fortunately, our neighbors Rich and Rhonda were able to snap a picture before it disappeared (do I need to remind you to click on the picture itself to see the entire picture?):



Okay, okay. Just a little joke




You can see that a little bit of the exterior "walls" are getting plywood. The roof trusses have all been lifted on top of the framing and will, hopefully, be put into place next week.



And so we leave. One day, we will not have to leave... sniff, sniff.
