I can see a roof line...

Okay, so Dave and I made our way to the lot last night (as you can probably tell now, we make at least 2 visits a week - but as you can see, if we skipped much more than that, we'd miss many photo ops of the progress!). So, as you'll see in the pics, they started to put our roof line up, there are still two missing on the house as of last night. They had about 1/3 of the roof boards up that go down to attach the shingles to. They also had poured the cement footings for our future deck (NO WHERE near the nice deck Dave bulit us, but all in good time). I'd say that's pretty good progress considering we had a fairly rainy day on Thursday.

Of course, we checked out the progress on the neighbors houses too, there was another neighbor with shingles delivered, garage doors were on and the windows were in. And, the neighbor that had the shingles delivered as of last Tuesday had their shingles completed and the plumbing piping was started.

So, I've taken a guess as to where I think we'll be as of next Friday and we'll see if next week's blogs prove me right. I've taken a guess that we'll have our roof completely finished (w/shingles), the deck will be done, garage doors on and windows in. A hefty list, but I have faith! This is a little game Dave and I play to make our life exciting...guess what progress will be made. Call it lame or just 2 people that want to get out of our tiny apartment asap! Until next week....
