A beaver's got to do what a beaver's got to do...

We spotted this walking by Dryden Lake today. Just beside it a tree had gone down, gnawed by a beaver in a hopeful expectation of setting up a dam somewhere right nearby.
Posted signs are obviously meaningless in beaver world!

But, more importantly, our house is gathering form... the second floor joists have been placed above the  garage and this Friday, we're hoping the roof timbers will be lowered.

And our crew were beavering away as well...
Here they are in the near freezing temperatures creating the support for Nicholas' studio...

And later this afternoon...

All ready for the under flooring of the 2nd floor...
We continue to be amazed and delighted and grateful beyond measure...
