House now has heat


The drywall work was completed, but it was too cold in the house to put the sealer on the ceiling, and the cold windy weather has not been cooperating. As of today, after various steps taken throughout the week, the house now has heat. Hopefully, the sealer can be put on Monday, and begin painting Tuesday.

Drywall!



Wednesday February 4th,2009: Today, 3 teams of 2 guys each started putting up drywall. With so many workers, a lot of progress was made. It's my understanding that drywall is the half way point of a house construction. So, now we are only half way there. Also, the builders worked on the porch roof and trim, in spite of a cold and windy day on the hill.
