May 2015: I started the Arthur as part of a Greenleaf community build in 2005, and at the time we blogged our progress on the Greenleaf forum. After a few site upgrades the old community blog has become hard to link to and I’m redoing my website anyway, so I decided to move those posts over here and backdate them. Sorry for any weirdness that results!

Turned out gluing the wooden blocks onto the underside of the foundation back wall was the way to go. Once that was glued on, the side walls went up fairly easily. I did that last night, and this morning glued on the bottom part of the front wall. It’s drying now. Still can’t take any pictures because the camera’s toast. When I knocked it off the workbench it fell on the lens… it’ll still take pictures but they’re really fuzzy! Geoff (my boyfriend) and I are going to take a trip up to Costco this afternoon and hopefully buy a new one. But my house is looking pretty much like everyone else’s did at this stage.
