Well House D-Day

July 18, 2010
tags:

The old house is down, the new on is up.

Rain and pain (Surprise! It was more work that I thought it would be.)

Sweat stains show on the new roof (top) ; I wallowed on this side in the hot sun before the thunderstorms interrupted (below)

A slide show of the whole weekend is posted below. FIL and BIL were a huge help; if you pay attention you will catch SIL trying to escape as the camera came out.

Lots of work is left to do before winter, including finishing the front, insulating and shoring up around the foundation a bit. .

    It looks great! I think you may have a future in demolition and construction. Saw Daddy yesterday and he looked exhausted, too.

    It took me seven minutes to get out of bed today.
    Where is the picture of all those monster logs that your BIL
    and I moved and stacked?

      Shhhhhhh….

      We must maintain electronic silence on this subject, lest your youngest daughter finds out and chides her spouse for not enforcing a “lift limit” for seniors on the job site.
