The Walls are Closing in on us

I spoke with our guy on Thursday and he was moving along on the pine installation and had a few questions for me. I answered the questions, and after his update we decided to take a day trip up on Saturday and check things out. He is moving along very nicely I must say. As you walk up the stairs, the door and wall have been installed and most of the pine done. As you walk in, it is just an amazing transformation from last week, when there was just a little pine installed, and mostly insulation showing.
As you can see the rear wall, side wall, and 1/2 of the ceiling is done. In addition the door has been trimmed out.The front wall is done as well. One of the walls on the side of the dormer has been done, and a doorway has roughed out to access the area behind the knee wall for storage.
Now it is really taking shape!
It is really looking awesome! We did a little electrical work, fixing the length of the switch wires in the new wall, and mounting the box and wiring for the hallway light. Before we left we had to look at the snow a bit. The trails next to the house were very icy and thin, yet there was still a lot of snow on the trails, or more exactly on the sides of the trail. And there was still plenty of snow in the yard as well.

Stay Tuned for the Final Reveal- in a few more weeks!
