Bust A Move

In the city ladies look pretty Guys tell jokes so they can seem witty Tell a funny joke just to get some play Then you try to make a move and she says "no way" Girls a fakin' ... goodness sakin' They want a man who brings home the bacon Got no money and you got no car Then you got no woman and there you are So don't just stand there, bust a move For all the real important business of the company, we rely on - Ken's Cans.

Now, it has been awhile since I posted but we have really been 'bustin a move' up here. I mean we are always busy but now we are jammin. Even for an 'overachiever' (james' words, not mine) we are building a lot. Building roads, building driveways, building foundations, roofs, installing siding, etc... Here's the beginning of Cottage 15, an 1100 sq ft home on 3 acres in Eldred NY.

And Cottage 14.

And Cottage 13, in the ground. Dean and I debated whether we should skip #13, like hotels do, but he said he liked the number, and if he is #13 in the scheme of things, he will make the best of it. This house is on almost 6 acres.

Then Albert's farm on top of the hill on 10+ acres with a 1/4 mile driveway leading up to it.

And the masons who have installed these 4 foundations in 2 weeks for us.

And Albert's approach, through the woods.

Perfect little Cottage 8 which is just a few weeks away from closing.

And Cottage 7, closing next week.

And James, kicking it at our new office. He probably on the phone looking busy with a 'personal call'. Lots of red accents in this space.

And a butterfly and bumble bee making nice in the parking lot of Catskill Farms International Headquarters.

Amazing, but this beautiful plant is a weed. And that's the bumble bee's butt sticking out from behind the cacti flower.

So there you have, a belated blog post because we've been bustin a move around the clock so more people can have more cottages and farmhouses quicker.
