Housebuilding: Week 5


It seems as though a lot has not happened this past week.  We started our 5th week of housebuilding with another wall raising.  Now the house was actually starting to look like a building as we entered the weekend of projects.  




Following the very busy Father's Day weekend the inside walls for the main floor of the house were all built and put up.  Now Andrew can run from one room to another and ask "who sleeps here?"  only to be confused when I keep answering "no one".  


I am excited for this next week and what it brings with beams and added heights and additional people.  The beams were delivered and although they will sit until Monday morning, I love seeing the potential that comes with 2 huge stacks of beautiful hemlock.   It is kind of like watching the potential in a little boy observing his father being a man; you know he is taking notes in his head for the day when he is required to do manly work.
