Spring is here. Because
we poured the foundation in the fall, we are getting about a 2 month
headstart on construction. This week, we poured the garage slab and
started framing. |

The subfloor is done and most
of the walls are framed. Next week the roof trusses arrive on
Wednesday and should be in place by Friday. Note the great views of
the mountains in the background. The living room will have huge
windows to take in the views. |

The walls are framed and
the roof trusses are being installed. Next week the exposed beams in
the living room will be placed and the sheeting put on the roof. The
living room ceiling is tongue & groove pine that we are prefinishing. |
