Rain, rain go away!

(Okay, this is the 4th time trying to get this posted. Our computer shuts itself off when the framers are working here.)

Well, the framers didn't get too far yesterday because of the thunderstorm and down pour of rain we had in the late morning. We even had some fun with water leaking into the house over the sliding door but Curtis was able to fix it. But the forecast says no rain today so they should finish up either today or while we're at the cabin. We are leaving sometime today and plan to be back on Sunday. So, since Curtis had some time on his hands yesterday (because he was suppposed to be helping the framers) he decided to go ahead and move the kid's window to the new wall.

The trusses that they did get done yesterday.



Stripping down the window.

Curtis cutting the wall where the window will be moved to.

Holy moly we have two holes in the bedroom!

Curtis and his helper, Andrew, who is our nephew, looking out the freshly cut hole for our window.

From here to....

there!

Curtis trying to piece back the hole where the window was taken out. We weren't able to cover up everything so will have to wait till we sheet rock everything else.

I agree. That patio looks like it will be nice and cool in the summer. Which direction does it face? Will it be screened in too?

The patio will be open but we're going to put a ceiling fan out there. It faces East and South (depending on where you're looking from) and so the majority of the day it will be shaded. It will be great!
