Tuesday! Tuesday!

So, we'll post a few pictures later, but we wanted to at least verbally update everyone as to what's going on with the Hixey House...

Over the weekend a father/sons crew came out and roofed the main living space. While they were there working, Dennis was out prepping the end trusses so that on Monday, he'd be able to attach the outriggers on the garage. That has been finished now, and he has also framed out the triangular section of wall between the garage and breezeway. The guys will finish framing the "hip" of the breezeway roof (where it meets the roof over the garage) and they should sheath those two roofs so that the roofers can finish their job this weekend. This is all supposition, but it sounds like a good timeframe...

We expect to have a new stair (leading into the basement) this week as well as new sub-floor boards where needed. They are also starting to pull wires for electrical. We met Dennis at the house last night and discussed the electrical "plan". The windows are on order and should arrive soon and the french doors are in and should be installed this week.

The bids for the deck are in, and are higher than we probably feel comfortable spending, but that's a discussion that has yet to really take place. We have decisions to make on that front, as that scope of work is not included in our replacement cost, and we'll be out of pocket.

Well, that's it for now...we'll update as news becomes available.
