That is a LOT of windows!


Here they are installed. Joe's crew is great! We worked with Davis and Davis Design and Build
Steve helped install all of the windows in the new kitchen.
Windows in, the extension of the chimney is finished, and the roof is done!
Here is the hole Steve dug and the timbers he put in for the egress window. Thanks for the help Andrew!

The Crew

This is Elliot. He keeps everyone honest and working.


This is Clark (on the right) he is an artist with a trowel!

Now we need a shot the the "Big Cheese." We'll get a pic of Joe soon.

Now it is going up fast!!


These are some interrior shots before the roof went on.

Water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink!

The walls are framed, the roof is framed and ready for felt and shingles. But the rain storm decided to show us where the leaks in our rubber mat were... Luckily they were in good spots (if there is such a thing) and we got to them quickly. Faith and I then spent the better part of an hour pushing water off of the 2nd floor with brooms and a squeegee. Are we having FUN yet???
Shingles go on Tuesday. More photos soon!

Framing is going well!


The walls are up and the complicated roof is getting hand framed...
