After work last Friday, I drove up to our property for a very brief but very important weekend… we built our yurt! It’s been months of excavation and building the platform and installing the flooring and waiting for the yurt company to fabricate the thing, and now we finally have a yurt!
A few days prior, Vince and his mom and brother rented a UHaul and drove up to Grass Valley CA to pick up our finished yurt— or at least, the pieces of our finished yurt. It was on us to actually put it together on site. Which, as you can imagine, was a bit of a project!
The first step was setting up the door (we paid extra for nice double French doors) and the lattice. Even just as soon as we stretched around the lattice, it started feeling like an interior space, a space separate from the outdoors. Magic!
The next step was raising the center ring. It’s a good thing Vince is so tall!
