The disappearig containers











We had a busy, productive week, with many things happening sooner than expected - which is good, for the rain is coming. Among the things accomplished, and not in any specific order, are that the windows and doors in the ends of the two (container) bedrooms arrived a week earlier than expected, so they got installed. The appearance of the house changed completely.








Next, Consumer's Power showed up a week earlier than expected, so there is now power to the house!! yippee, but no pictures. They just had to come and pull wire through the conduit and connect the panel.








Pam got lots more shingles put up on the North wall. Lots of detail and patience.








I cut out the inside hallway into the lower bedroom. I used up several abrasive cutting disks and had a lot of pinpoint burns on my arms (they go away quickly).








I installed an urbanite (broken concrete) porch. Just in time for the mud!! And notice that we put in the main entry door/window. I was going to wait in order to avoid possible damage, but seeing that the rains were coming, I decided to put the big doors in while the weather was still good so I wouldn't be working in the mud. What a concept!








Finally, there are no pictures of the plumbing rough'-in or of the new chimney cap or the framing for the downstairs bedroom closet. but it all happened.
