I’m looking forward to the progress of your house, and I’ll be waiting for more updates on this.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.walkercontracting.ca/" rel="nofollow">Kermit Lukacs</a><br />Kermit Lukacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17716187948152586419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331517576494781204.post-79408373443508419122013-02-13T23:33:28.987-08:002013-02-13T23:33:28.987-08:00Hi Penelope,

We have contractors in to help with some of the big pieces of the house such as concrete and the roof. We have been building the house about a year and are hoping to be in it late spring, fingers crossed.<br /><br />There are quite a few container house around, at least one in each state. They are fun to build with and we can't wait to move into ours.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by the blog, come back to keep tabs on our progress.<br /><br />Hannah and KyleHannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18390170965001254897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331517576494781204.post-24481021689652611892013-02-08T12:22:41.518-08:002013-02-08T12:22:41.518-08:00It’s my first time to hear about a house made out ...It’s my first time to hear about a house made out of containers and it sounds challenging to me. Anyway, how many people are working on it? When will it be finished? I’m sure it’ll look great and everything will go as planned.

My land...Hannah - he's a beautiful looking dog. My land is 2 hours south west of Sydney and it can get cold (relatively speaking) there in winter, with temps around 27 C (80F) max in summer and 2degC (35 F) min in winter so I think a Malamute will cope ok. I first saw a Malamute in 1986 on my cycle-Europe trip and decided there and then it was the only dog I wanted!!<br />I arrived back just over a week ago from London where it was just over zero with snow, to experience Sydneys hottest day on record (45.8C - 114.5F)!! I am now living down near my land as I begin to tackle all the council planning and building regulations. Not looking forward to THAT stage!! But I can't wait to put the first hole in the ground.<br />Terry.TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286509652584466114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331517576494781204.post-13175250668559843942013-01-29T12:49:04.420-08:002013-01-29T12:49:04.420-08:00Hi Brendan,

We are cutting out the existing corrugated metal roof in the containers so it is open to the raised roof.<br /> Hope it works out, fingers crossed;-)<br />Thanks,<br />HannahHannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18390170965001254897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331517576494781204.post-26685122916192627262013-01-29T12:11:00.978-08:002013-01-29T12:11:00.978-08:00Building a house made of containers is a big proje...Building a house made of containers is a big project, and it definitely needs a professional’s expertise. I hope the roof in the container will match beautifully with the existing roof. If not, it would look odd and unbalanced.

His name is Denali after the mountain which means The Tall One, very appropriate. He is wonderful, such a sweetheart, he is the only one of his litter that they were able to find a home for, I guess the others were not dog like enough.<br /> You definitely should get a dog with your new place, how will a Malamute do in the heat down there? Hope you are staying cool and recovering from the trip. Can't wait to see the start of the house!!<br />H Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18390170965001254897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8331517576494781204.post-67959235690217163052013-01-23T20:18:02.133-08:002013-01-23T20:18:02.133-08:00Fantastic progress - love how it's coming toge...Fantastic progress - love how it's coming together.
