Well good news, it looks like we’ve got a guy to handle the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC work at the house. The even better news is that we should come in a bit under budget. I really feel good about him.

The framers continued their steady progress. The porch roof is finished, and the remainder of all the roof decking is on. They are close to finishing the wall sheathing. All that remains is vaulting the ceilings, finishing the sheathing, putting on house wrap, installing the windows, and correcting a few oversights/errors. Probably two more days worth.

The framers really got a lot done today. I continue to be amazed at how fast they work. It has been a great boost to my spirits to see this progress.

I went over to Chapel Hill this morning to inquire about HVAC services. That didn’t work out, but this sign pretty much made the trip worth my while.

The back field looked beautiful.
