Big Progress In A Short Week


This past week Eric and his crew built the garage...



...and started the roof for the front porch...



...and worked more on the rooftops (and finished them, shingles and all, see below)...











...and began the little staircase up into the house from the garage...










...and on Thursday, Fairpoint planted the utility poles - soon there will be heat inside...










...and Eric began to frame the walls upstairs.












The roof trusses in the garage.















Earlier this afternoon, we drove up again, and Colby and Matthew show how tall the house is.

Noah: "I want to stay toasty in the car, Mama!"












We marvel at the scene (especially the finished rooftops on the garage and front porch).










And then turn around to see another amazing view - from the front porch.











Heading out.
Kate: "Noah, look at the moon!"
Noah: "Tractor, Mama!"
Kate: "Noah, look at the moon!"
Noah: "Plow tractor, Mama!"
Kate: "What do you see in the sky, Noah?"
Colby: "He likes the tractor better."
Me: [Laughing, then quiet, finally.]
