I'm going to try to keep all of these captions short and let the photos speak for themselves. (Not that the photos are all that spectacular, I'm just incredibly tired.) Things are "zooming right along," as my dad used to say. It's amazing to watch the frame of the house go up so quickly after waiting so long to get to this point. Here's what's happened since the last post:
Looking at the front door from the driveway.
Looking from the great room toward the hallway leading to bedrooms and bathrooms.
From the living room through the kitchen wall to the back yard.
From the kitchen through the living room to the front yard.
Adam and Dustin putting up joists. They are working so hard out there—taking full advantage of the non-rainy weather.
Andy and Ava standing in the hole where the big sliding door will go.
Andy and Ava standing in the kitchen area.
A ridge beam with rafters attached. Andy asked if we really have to put a roof on... or if we could have a convertible roof for days like today. (It was really nice out there today, especially considering it is Feb. 1.)
This is looking toward the hallway from the great room again. The great room ceilings will be vaulted to match the rafters seen in the photo, as will the bedrooms. The only flat-ceiling rooms will be closets, bathrooms and the hallway. This leaves a nice big attic space for storage and crafting. :)
Faithful BLB readers may notice I've been taking photos from this angle every so often. I wanted to have one set reference point so I could really track the process of construction. I wish I had taken the photos at regular time intervals as well, oops.
Ava approves.

Oh my goodness! You guys are really rockin & rollin! Congrats, over and over! Ya hoo! Thank god you have finally reached a spot where people are working with you instead of against you.
The weather looks awesome. Doesn't look like winter at all out there in Blue Lake. Unlike here, look out my window and it's snowing!
