Second Floor Here We Come



After 2-weeks in the mountains I came home to quite a surprise- Joey had finished the front porch and finished framing and sheeting all of the walls for the first floor. After a quick shower, hug, and a kiss it was back to work. "Hand me another board, please."

Last night we completed putting in the tongue and groove flooring for the second floor, which will double as a finished ceiling for the first floor. It looks lovely and we will have to work hard to keep it pristine through the construction of the second floor walls. We hope to have the walls for the next floor framed in the next two days so we can begin construction on the roof. It has been raining quite a bit lately- we feel like we are in a race to get all the wood up and the structure protected before it beings to warp.

Our favorite part so far- the view keeps getting better the higher we get.
