We just ordered a perc test. The first picture is a straight shot of the property, and the following pictures follow a panoramic view, first right, then left. You can see Farmer Smith's equipment and buildings on the left. The shrubs are approximately where our property line is.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4Wevh1_06I/AAAAAAAAADo/iA9MNJO3AY4/s1600-h/IMG_0917.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4Wevh1_06I/AAAAAAAAADo/iA9MNJO3AY4/s400/IMG_0917.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441930264123003810" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4We5RS93oI/AAAAAAAAADw/WgwLTx-ou3k/s1600-h/IMG_0918.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4We5RS93oI/AAAAAAAAADw/WgwLTx-ou3k/s400/IMG_0918.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441930431479799426" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4We-yd9MHI/AAAAAAAAAD4/2CbfuDu79YI/s1600-h/IMG_0919.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4We-yd9MHI/AAAAAAAAAD4/2CbfuDu79YI/s400/IMG_0919.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441930526283608178" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfESARe1I/AAAAAAAAAEA/MQ60W7pLv1o/s1600-h/IMG_0921.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfESARe1I/AAAAAAAAAEA/MQ60W7pLv1o/s400/IMG_0921.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441930620648389458" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfJgxMicI/AAAAAAAAAEI/73m88Vs8DC0/s1600-h/IMG_0922.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfJgxMicI/AAAAAAAAAEI/73m88Vs8DC0/s400/IMG_0922.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441930710511028674" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfmtcwLmI/AAAAAAAAAEY/gpGpmqihh4o/s1600-h/IMG_0923.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfmtcwLmI/AAAAAAAAAEY/gpGpmqihh4o/s400/IMG_0923.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441931212131151458" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfRDG5xlI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/0Pzw-YJOTlA/s1600-h/IMG_0924.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EwvxB9YQ9ec/S4WfRDG5xlI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/0Pzw-YJOTlA/s400/IMG_0924.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441930839987963474" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4689808163762938534-6416258043857520804?l=newkentuckyhome.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>David and Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01452290646060036028noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4689808163762938534.post-25079464957741809742010-02-23T07:33:00.000-05:002010-02-23T07:37:45.294-05:00In June of 2009, my wife and I flew to Seattle, Washington to attend a weekend seminar given by the Log Home Builders Association. Over the next 48 hours we learned everything we needed to know in order to build a log home by ourselves. During the last eight months we have been looking for land. We found a 5.68 acre plot in Shelbyville, Kentucky this week. We're in the process of buying it and should start putting in a foundation in a few months.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4689808163762938534-2507946495774180974?l=newkentuckyhome.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>David and Jillhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01452290646060036028noreply@blogger.com2
