Blogging The Dome: December 2009
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 15, 2009. Moving Day at the Dome! It took me nearly five years, three contractors, and a husband, but the day has finally arrived. Everything was eventually packed up and moved out. Goodbye, little house. I'm thinking it will need a tiny bit of work before I get ready to sell it in the spring, but it wasn't a bad place. The cats, naturally, were quite displeased with the whole process. We kept them crated up while the furniture was being moved. Oh, the indignity of it all.

Blogging The Dome: October 2007
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 30, 2007. There is actual paint going on the actual dome! Mike started the primer coat today. He's using Loxon, an acrylic primer specifically meant for concrete. He has to roller it on because it's almost always too windy to spray on the ridge - it'll probably be a four-day job. Sunday, October 28, 2007. The dormers are all complete! It rained off and on last week (what a wet season we've been having! But the forcast says sunny and cool for all of next week. Paint at last!

Blogging The Dome: Shower
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2009/11/shower.html
Saturday, November 21, 2009. I think I might have a contractor-crush on my tile guy. Look at the beautiful job he did on the shower in the master bath. Love! I love your earthy/craftsman/American bungalow colors. Very nicely done. Beautiful. And maybe that earthy craftsman guy might really be a possibility for you.

Blogging The Dome: September 2009
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 27, 2009. Some more progress pictures of the dome. I'll also show you the other two wall colors. The master bedroom is painted in Ruskin Green. And the kitchen in Hubbard Squash. (Totally aside, I am wearing what is possibly the Most Unflattering Dress In the World. Can you believe this thing used to be too small. For me at one point? The second-story flooring is about halfway installed. They were apparently working in Hunter's room when they knocked off for the weekend. I'm doing a lot...

Blogging The Dome: November 2007
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 11, 2007. We finished the final coat yesterday, except for a few touch-ups and a little work on the upstairs dormers. as is pretty obvious in this picture, we were racing the weather. (It's supposed to rain tomorrow.) What a relief to finally have it done. Now, with the exterior finished, we can concentrate on the interior work all winter. For some reason, there are ladybugs all over the dome. I don't mean a few here and there; I'm talking thousands. Monday, November 05, 2007.

Blogging The Dome: March 2009
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 28, 2009. Saturday, March 14, 2009. Springtime and a new year. I'll bet you thought we had abandoned the dome project by now. Not true! I'm just a very bad blogger. It's coming up on four years (! Armed with caffeine, we headed out this morning to get some work done. In the meantime, I'm under orders to not do any heavy lifting (long story), so guess who got to sweep upstairs? After the upstairs was as clean as I could get it, I went outside and wandered around a bit on the lower half....

Blogging The Dome: Home sweet Dome
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2010/01/home-sweet-dome.html
Sunday, January 24, 2010. A blustery, sloppy day was no match for the warmth of friends yesterday. The long-awaited housewarming party filled the Dome with laughter, conversation, some pretty good food, and fun on a winter's afternoon. It was too cold and muddy to spend any time outdoors, but just wait till spring. we'll have a great lawn party then! Mom, do you know this one too? Yes honey, that's 'Slow Ride' by Foghat." (trying hard not to say "Duh! All in all, a wonderful day. It's good to be home.

Blogging The Dome: April 2007
http://blogthedome.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 29, 2007. Springtime at the Dome. The concrete crew is set to come this week and finish up the exterior work. Won't it be nice to finally get that. Meantime, Mike bought an awful lot of quik-crete and stacked it in the garage, ready to use. Hunter (sporting his usual summer buzz cut, newly cropped this morning) quite helpfully unhitched the trailer once it was unloaded. (We leave it parked behind the dome when it's not in use. easier than storing it in town.). Sunday, April 01, 2007. Natura...
