Bayfield Mews weekly (more or less) update

Another visit to our upcoming home in Bayfield Mews today. The morning started out overcast but mild, and cleared up nicely as we got closer to Bayfield, going up to a sunny 7C there today.

As usual we wish there was more progress, but it's coming along. The trim guys were hard at work inside today, sawdust everywhere. Outside the front porch concrete was poured and curing. Driveway and walkway were done for the first 2 places in our block of four, and ours should be done Friday.

Concreting the next-door driveway

Next door all done and curing now
Our appliances arrived while we were there (this was planned). They will be installed next week:




It seems the wrong time of year for a haircut, but my last one was in Nova Scotia about 4 months ago. Some woman (Cathie) likes to snap a picture of this big event, this time at a Bayfield barbershop:




To top the day off, we had a very pleasant lunch with Al and Kelly from the Bayfield Bunch, at a local eatery.

  3. Nice to hear from you too. Hope they get everything done outside before the freezing cold hits. Good luck in your new home. Maybe traveling again next winter.

    1. Once the concrete is done they will try to do most of the dirt fill before real winter sets in. Travelling next winter is in the plans, but you know what they say about best-laid plans.

  4. Nice to see that poured concrete accessible entrance next door. I assume yours will be like that! Nice you got to have lunch with that other famous blogger in Bayfield!

    1. Yes it should be easily accessible to you! No steps at all except from the house into the garage.
