A new framing crew was brought in to finish up the second floor and roofing system. Jay's roofing design had everyone very impressed and they needed his help with how to build certain portions of it.

- Raising the Walls!! November
They worked 7 days a week when the weather cooperated to build the wall and flooring system throughout the house.
A metal beam was placed between the basement and first floor.
Bill is standing in the den.
I'm standing where the bathtub will be placed. The view from the window overlooks the 5 acres of our wooded area.
- Additional Block Walls - November
They continued to add block walls as Max (who belongs to Patrick our neighbor a few blocks away) monitored the progress.
Max also enjoyed the occasional cookie shared by the workers!

- Cement Block Walls in the Basement - October
Some of the walls in the basement were put up with cement blocks.
And, in the words of John Cougar Mellancamp..."And the walls, came tumbling down...and the walls, came tumbling down..." A few days after they put these walls up, they were working inside with a small tractor and KNOCKED one of the walls DOWN. Oh, the fun of building!!
