Update on Icehouse Renovation

You might have noticed I haven't said too much about the icehouse renovation this year. The only reason is that we haven't made any progress. There are a few reasons for this...

1. it's a hell of a time to find a construction loan, esp. for a weird project like this
2. we have been way too successful in our jobs this year, i.e. lots of overtime
   
3. we have been spending our free time working on our other property
   

Basically life has been treating us very well. The bad news is that I don't think we will be able to host any events like we did last year, it is always so fun to open up the place and fill it with art and such. But like any large project you must be able to enjoy the process, and so we are taking advantage of the downtime by really planning what to do with the icehouse.

I imagine we will take another year to let the economy do its thing, then hit the ground running at the end of next winter. I know it makes for a boring blog, but there is always plenty of engineering topics to discuss!
