These pictures were taken yesterday (20 July).
It has been a slow process.

The supports under the 'roof' will come out in the next week.  I am waiting 3 weeks (or longer)to remove them.  I don't want any cracking.  After that the fire brick and chimney go in and we can try it out - as I continue laying stone.
The bags in the fireplace are lupine seed pods that I harvested from the roadside.  My dilemma now is have I harvested wild lupine or domesticated lupine gone wild - does it matter?
