Thanksgiving Week…In review

Thanksgiving week brought a lot of changes at the “L” Shaped House. The first photo shows the warm glow of  lights coming from inside the house just after sunset. The moon rose early and the clear skies provided an opportunity for this nice twilight scene. This photo of the “L” Shaped House is the first I’ve posted that “feels” like we are on a path to achieve our original mission (expressed here)!

The next photo shows the preparations underway to protect the standing seam roof over the porch as the siding and trim is installed on the front of the house. The Tappe guys plan to get started on the front first thing Monday morning.

 

The next two photos show the back wall of the house with the siding and trim installed. In the right hand photo the siding, trim, soffit, eave, and roof details all come together at the valley above the stairwell window. An oversized gutter and downspout will be installed here that will direct rain water down the back wall and into the PVC drain that carries water to the back side of the yard.

The last photo shows the area at the top of the stairs from the inside corner of the book nook. The sheet rock installed upstairs this week is starting to make the place feel like a house!
