“Yep, that’s where she’ll be.” He said. “Then here’ll be the parlor, that'll be where the rocker'll go and she's plenty big enough, as is the kitchen. ‘course what you’re seein’ is where the foundation’ll be, all them forms is foundation an' where the floor joices'll be, so there’s no way to get a real good idea of the way she’ll look jest yet. Then, here off the kitchen is the pantry. Made ‘er good sized too.”
“Now, There’s two rooms to go here, along this wall. Second floor’ll take care of the other bedrooms as needed.” He smiled. “Off the kitchen we’ll have the root cellar, close to hand. So that there’s how she shapes up.”
Sighing, Emeline nodded, following his description with a wistful smile on her face. "It's going to be a fine house, and the stables there..." Far enough away from the house so as not to impose with horsie odors, yet still part of the complex. "And the corral and bunkhouse..." All a ways down the road, but all part of a good future, and she was looking forward to putting the pieces together to make a beautiful home.
"We need a gazebo over there," she pointed, "where we can see the falls, have our own secret place." She laughed, leaning her head on his shoulder. "But I think a hammock would do in lieu of a gazebo!"

“The corral and the bunk house’ll be out thata way but we’ve not got there yet, just the general idea of what goes where. First we gotta get the house up an’ finished.” He pointed out.

“I’ll put that on the list, but fer now, the hammock sounds about right to me.” He responded. “Be done in a couple months the way the boys are workin’, an then there’ll be a whole different look to the place by then. ‘Course now, it could be sooner, but we’ll see.”
