Pat is up on the roof a good part of the day preparing a work platform for Mike Hagen to finish the chimney and get the stone work completed above the roof. It amazes me how comfortable he is and how much he likes being on the roof.
R. D. is preparing window openings by firring out each opening 1" which is how thick the siding is. We install the bay window into its opening as well as the north kitchen and powder room windows. Once we have a system down, it goes quickly and smoothly. The windows just look fantastic.
Greenbay and Bill have completed the south wall of the master suite and we stand the wall up and nail it in place. The layout and building of the final exterior wall has begun as well.
I've spent the entire morning unloading all the junk and misc lumber that has been sitting on my trailer for over a month since we cleaned up the lumber yard and moved everything from down on the highway. I have to empty the trailer as I need to take it to Telluride tomorrow to pick up the steel for the roof. Much of the material on the trailer is firewood, but lots of misc wood that we will use in the final framing also has to be stacked with similar type wood in the yard. I have also covered up several exposed piles of lumber with new plastic to make some attempt to keep things dry.
