Wow! It's fully built!
July 31. The house is fully framed and sheeted. All of the interior walls are framed, too, so you can really feel the spaces. Almost all of the windows are installed. |

House is fully enclosed
August 6. The whole house is wrapped, the roof shingles are on and some of the trim is installed. |
|
|
Open interior
Most of the rough plumbing and electrical are done. We have a walk-through meeting with the builder on 8/11 (only two working days away) just before they start covering everything up with sheetrock! The orange pipe pictured is for the fire sprinkler system. |

Fireplace
The fireplace unit (direct vent gas) is in place. |
|
|
Two bathrooms upstairs
Both the guest bathtub (right foreground) and the master shower unit (distance) are in place. |

Furnace and heater ducts

Garage electrical panel
All neat and orderly (and labeled!). |

The water heater
I don't think it really leans to the right...that's my lousy photography. |

Siding Fully Installed
August 15. Inside, the only change is the installation of most of the insulation. A quick stop on August 18 showed that drywall has been hung inside the house, but not yet taped. |
