Interior Walls? Check.

The week's worth of work ended with the completion of all interior walls on the main level. According to the builder, next week we'll see the garage framed up and the 2nd floor.

Exterior Walls? Check.

All of the exterior walls were completed today and the interior walls in the master bed started.

Boy what a difference a day makes...

9/12 - Boy was it exciting to see walls! They made it all the way across the front and around to the back of the master bedroom.



The back great room wall is laying on top of the subfloor.

Got a floor... let's dance

09/11 - All of the subfloor was laid today and they had already started building the window headers and marking off some of the exterior walls.





Stacks of plywood, 2x4's, and 2x6's

Floor Joists and Steel beams!

Bring on the Wood!

First evidence that it actually takes wood to build these suckers!

Even MORE concrete!

The basement at this point is pretty much finished. You can see the garage walls have been poured and backfilled with rock.



Water sealer has been applied to the walls (the black goopy stuff.)
