Halloween

Let me see if I can name who my kids were for Halloween without Google...well, there's Iron Man, and a monkey of course...hmmm...nope. Thank you Google. Beau is Sauron from the Lord of the Rings. He's never seen the movie, but knows all about it thanks to the Lego video game. Cash is a Lego Chima character named Gorzan thanks to Netflix.

Who Needs a Roof in October Anyway?

This is moving pretty fast now. The whole roof is off, and new pony wall extensions are being tied into the existing walls to give us 9' ceiling heights. The first new upstairs floor joists are now going in. We're supposed to get rain this weekend, so it's a bit of a race against the coming elements, but so far it has been pretty dry since we've started.

Once the new joists are in, the sub-floor can go down and then most of the house will be somewhat closed in so that we can at least tarp it easier. It also means we can start getting to new electrical and make the place a little livable again.

Very exciting stuff!

Demo Has Finally Begun

This is the beast that will be lifting our roof off over the next week.

Here we go for real now.
