Some Pictures



We had an interesting weekend. Went over to the house Sat. morning and the heat would not go on! Oops, the entire furnace was frozen, apparently it could not handle the 40 below zero. All the water and condensation on the inside was frozen solid. After about 5 hours of blowdrying and a small oil heater we were back in business and it fired up. Lesson learned: we are keeping the furnace on all the time now at the minimum of 40 degrees so we don't have this problem again. Lots more insulation is going up so this should help....and we have all the windows done now including the new one that had to be cut into the bedroom wall.
Josh hooking up the last of electrical in the back of the house. Bathroom is all set to have the rest of the insulation and plumbing put in this week. There was a window in the way of the wall so this was removed and siding installed on the exterior.











Here are the switches for the great room. We have installed a switch that will control the light and fan speeds. Smart thinking considering it will be too high to reach!!













More electrical and insulation being installed in the great room. Also, the ceiling framing is now completed.

We Have Rooms!!





Here are a couple pictures to show you the progress. Josh has one bedroom completely framed, the door installed and is working on the electrical this evening.



The other wall he built will the back wall to the kitchen. This wall is shared with the bathroom and a second bedroom. The doorway will lead to the bathroom and is situated next to the second bedroom. They didn't give us the proper hardware for the 2nd bedroom so no door yet but hopefully soon!!
