Lots of Walls

Saturday we stopped by to check on progress. Indeed, as the builder told us, the exterior walls of the house were almost all up, along with most of the interior walls. This is the view that greeted us as we drove up.

Southeast Corner

It is surprising to me how little our house looks from the outside. The porch looks tiny, as does the foyer. It will be different when it is finished, I am sure.

Marlene wanted an exact measurement of a particular kitchen dimension. It ended up being 3/4 of an inch larger than the architect's drawing. This little extra was exactly what she needed for the cabinet layout she drew up! I am getting ready to take that measurement.

Lots of Interior Walls

The front and back garage walls are built but not raised.

We are eagerly looking forward to our views. This is from our bedroom window. Not bad for being winter and having this scraggy-looking creep in the foreground.

And the view out the west window of the great room is not bad either.

I guess those No Trespassing signs don't work. Already there are homeless people living in your house. Homeless people with nice rubber boots.
