Windows installed

They installed the windows today. You can see all the windows in the lower section from this angle. Some of you may not know the layout of the house. The area to the left is the family room. We use to call our family room a Rec Room when I was growing up. I'm not sure if it was a Rec Room (short for Recreation Room) or a Wreck Room (named after the way we left it). The area in the middle is the dining area. The small window is in the "blue" bathroom. The room to the far right is the spare bedroom. The two side-by-side windows under the spare bedroom are in the large garage (the small garage doesn't have any windows).
I don't think I catch everything they do every day. Some days I will notice something and wonder when they did it.

Work Continues

They continued putting on the strips of painted wood that decorate the lower half of the house.
They also added some vent holes from the garage area in the front of the house to the walk space (a crawl space you can walk through) in the back of the house. We have to let the flood go through the house. If you look hard you can see the vapor barrier on the ground in the walk space.
I enjoyed my birthday today.

Windows

They delivered the windows today. They are in the small garage.
They also put up the framing and decorative pieces around the garage doors. You can see the rigging they used to cut pieces to length. They used the large garage to get out of the rain. They also used the window opening.
This is the small garage. The windows are out of sight along the wall to the right.
They also put decorative pieces on the side of the house.

More belly band

They added more of the belly band today. The part that is missing in the front is where the front porch will be.
They put pressure treated lumber where the back porch will go. They added the belly band to the rest of the house except for the gap where the front porch will be.

Starting on the belly band

They started putting up the belly band today. They also added decorative pieces to the lower section.
This is the south side of the house. You can see the decorative pieces that were installed on the lower section. You can also see the vents to let the flood in.
