Quick entry as we're in prep mode to get outa town for a bit over a week. It's hard for me to leave when I'm in this push push push mode, but it's a good time for a much needed break.
The weather has continued to serve us well, with only a little nip in the mornings and temps in the 40s and often as high as low 50s in the day. This whole week we've had no rain, only the everpresent mist and fog that breaks for perhaps an hour of sunshine each afternoon.
The roof work is coming along. I'm only about two days ahead of the work right now, in terms of getting things figured out on the computer ahead of daytime needs. Oh Well.
These two pics show as much as is visible about this week's roof progress. THere's a lot of work in there that you can't see . The North "wing" now has its insulation sandwich and is covered in tar paper that's repelling the mist "as we speak" (which we don't, in the era of the blog, and sometimes that's hard because whoever you are, you hear a lot more from me than I do from you!).
Last thing on Friday we got the dreaded (by me) ridge beam up into the air. See it up there at the tippy top? If the weather permits when I return we can get moving on second floor's roof. It will be the hardest as it runs at twice the pitch of the north and south wings. On the other hand, the beams that go on the South wing -- in the foreground here -- will all remain exposed on the interior, so when we get there I'l l be saying that's the hardest.... and so it goes!
