I finally have had time to sit down and load pics, and add to the Blog. This working on the addition in my pare time leaves me no spare time.
We did finally get the footer poured. Then it rained again and washed some of the sides in. But we love a challenge!!! The deck went down in short order and the walls were built. I had to beg help from a friend from church, Chase Kinder and his son Anthony to help set the walls up and nailed them down.
Then the inerior walls were put up. There is a bedroom fo Maddie, laundry room (moving up from basement), and Master Bed and Bath. There is a 8' porch out the back of he addition that will be off the Master Bedroom. I can already visualize having my morning breakfast there....
I again had to beg help to set the trusses. They are 40' long with 1/2 a cathedral (Master Bed) and very heavy. We had Denny Haight, Chase Kinder,Nate Kinder, Dan Bowers, Reed Stiles (F&L) on the ground, with Nate Mayle, and Bill Fish on the walls. A very welcome group, and very thankful that everythin went smooth. Maybe a few splinters, but otherwise.....
Yesterday, we finished sheeting the roof. It has been very hot and humid the last few days, and that makes it harder than normal for me to work. I am too used to A/C and driving around as the norm.
