Revealing Itself

Thursday the 19th. The roof outline is nearly complete and the application of felt will soon begin on the plywood. We have been EXTREMELY lucky with the weather, as we've had sunny days nearly throughout the framing process. This has been crucial, especially during the days that the old house had to be opened to make room for the new addition. The builder will try to actually roof the house on Friday the 20th, as the forecast finally calls for rain over the weekend.
We will finally have an easy means of accessing the backyard.


The Trex is being installed. Trex is a recycled material, a bit more expensive than wood, but with a much longer lifetime and again without the maintenance issues.


We found a cool old french door at the Rebuilding Center, a local nonprofit that takes in used items and makes them available to everyone. The door will hopefully grace our bathroom downstairs.
