    As soon as you pour the pad, immediately put down a gravel path around the whole thing. If you don't, you will have a mud stain for about two feet up on the sides that you may never be able to clean off.

We are opposite of each other but that's what makes us work so well together. Plus we've agreed to disagree. That's the secret to a long marriage! This year it was our 27th wedding anniversary. 🤔 I wonder how long Jason & Brooke have been married.🤷🏻‍♀️

    Brooke, to keep you from worrying, the best thing you can do for posts in the ground is to use the Japanese process for preserving wood called Shou Sugi Ban. You char the post with fire, then you coat it with natural oil like linseed. Not only does it become waterproof, it also deters bugs.

    Reminded me of the time we were driving in the car and a favorite song came on the radio and I started singing along and my kids all got quiet. When the song was over my oldest says, “Mama, is that one of those old times songs?” I suddenly felt old and I was only 30. He better not say that now

    For those of you who don't have a mental image of an acre, it's _very_ close to an American football field without the end zones or sidelines. The field is 1.1 acres.The acre is almost _exactly_ the same as 91 yards of the American football field. 91 yards of the football field edge to edge is 1.003 acre. So if a team is sitting at the 9 yard line trying to get into the end zone, there's a acre behind them all the way to the other end zone.

    I live in a wear house apartment. We put in French doors upstairs. I want an awning over them like you showed. They will open onto a deck on the second story. We are scheduled to have it done next week. I would love to build a red barndominium but I’m approaching 70 so I’ll be content with light yellow and a red door on my wear house front.
    As for water, we have had 5 gallon jugs of spring water delivered for years. We lived at the end of a city water line that constantly was sending muddy water through to flush out the lines. Also, our house was built in 1971 so we didn’t trust the safety of the pipes. When we go to restaurants I won’t drink their water because I can taste the chlorine in the water. We have a Black & Decker water dispenser that dispenses hot and cold water. I use the water to drink and cook with.

    Brooke, steel does need painting eventually. Next time driving in town, look for old business signs. They have character rust and age. But maybe they have new treatments now. Talk to a name brand paint center (not a box store) as they have the latest research and development of paints. Your house build sounds like a great journey and plenty of future content! By the time you are ready to start though, you should have all your outside projects done. Enjoy!

    We put a charcoal gray metal roof on our house in 2004 and it has faded. The bad part is, not all of it has faded but some of it. So, we have darker and lighter pieces. Makes me want to cry every time I look at it because otherwise, the roof is in great condition. We went with metal because of the durability and longevity. We live in GA and also get tornadoes and remnants of hurricanes so we thought it was the best option for our conditions. We were recently told by a contractor that more than likely, the metal came from 2 different places or 2 different “runs” when purchased by our previous contractor so that is why it didn’t fade evenly. On the bright side, like you said, you guys shouldn’t have that issue with the colors you are going with. 😊
    Also, I used the gel stain “faux wood” method on our Fiberglass door about 7 years ago and it has held up great! It gets SW and W blazing sun and still looks great! Super easy to do. I’m sure you can do it.
    The example picture Jason put on the screen is beautiful….so excited for your family! God Bless!

    If your water taste bad then your water line may need to be flushed out.The water line that used to feed the old mobile home that was there probably runs directly out to the highway and a meter .That is a very long line that dead ends at the tiny house.The hose that you use for the geese/ducks/etc could be hooked up to your camper.That will keep your camper/tiny home supply line flushed out and fresh.Backflow is a concern .Ask a plumber.

    They make several different filters you can put on your camper. Just be sure all is insulated and heat taped to keep from freezing. Worked construction for years and lived in a camper while on the road. Worked in PA in the winter and it got down around zero often but with heat tape and insulation it wasn’t a problem. I actually ran my waterline in through a 4” pipe to give it added protection. Line never froze.

      You need to put skirting around the bottom of the travel trailer & your Momma's tiny house. Otherwise the floors get very cold & pipes can freeze. You don't want to have frozen water or waste lines.

My camper also has tank heaters for the potable, grey and black water tanks as well as being 4 season insulated.

    Transom windows were big before the days of air conditioning. It's just like Jason was talking about in antebellum homes. They'd tip out to open. Since heat rises, you could open windows on the side the wind was blowing from and open the transom windows on the other side and that heat would gush right out and cooler air would get pulled in. There's still some types of construction with thick walls that stay cool in the day even in desert climates without air conditioning and they still use transom windows in the same way.
