I bought a piece of the island down Matagorda way before the floods came. That put off my building a house down on the island. Well the floods have gone and the house was moved and rebuilt. Its time! I got the piers, beams and floor joists delivered yesterday. November 22 I have my rock star building crew headed out to get started. I am super excited. This place should give me the rest of my years some fairly good bay duck hunting.

That’s awesome! Can’t wait to see what it looks like once completed.

Cool. As said, post pics. I'm close to retirement age and thinking about a place down there to escape to every once in a while.

Progress will be kind of slow. My goal is to have the foundation up to the floor joists installed before spring. Then after the spring and fall snake clinics I will have enough money to take it to dried in (thats framed, sheathed, tyvek on ext walls, roof decked and metal roof installed, doors and windows.) I want the dried in finished by spring after next.

Wow. This should be even better than the duck blind build. Look forward to progress and pics.
