The roof is finished (almost), and we are pretty happy. The first dumpster left, and an empty one came back. The dumpster guy showed up around 6:30am, so it was an interesting way to wake up. These are also some of the last pictures of the old back wall in the kitchen. Plastic is up, and the wind is coming in. The pile of bricks is the old brick wall in the dining room. When we first moved in, the house had the brick wall, and a large brick and cement base, where an old ugly cast iron wood burning stove sat. I remember spending a weekend taking out that slab, and the stove. It always bugged me that I could see where I patched the ceiling. We loved the brick wall, and I was kind of sad to see it go. The best news, so far is no termite or carpenter ant problems anywhere. The sliding glass door moved as did the kitchen window today as well, and the loft area that we discussed yesterday was framed in.
