Life Florida, only smaller. And maple.

I was going to do this myself...

...until the much older and wiser John G. convinced me not to.

I owe him.

Satisfying John G's need for updates.

Here it is. I think this is after the second coat. I don't know. These guys work 16 hour days, it seems.

It's cold out here.

Finally, a shot of the basement. Note the expensive concrete. I'll be paying for that until the day I die.

Stairs are supposedly installed, so now I can stop worrying about breaking my neck as I descend the ladder the carpenters built.

Oil!

No, not really. It's water. It took these guys only 3 hours to dig the well and get it capped off. It's 75 feet deep, 25 feet short of the 100 feet they estimated it at (and, unfortunately, I still have to pay for 100 feet).

The good news is that it's shallow, there's water, and we're now rid of the Waukesha radon-laced water. Mmmm...radioactive isotopes.

John G made me post this.

He really did. He threatened violence if I didn't update any photos...so here you are. Shingles are on and siding is almost done. Rough mechanicals are done. The nice weather has made things a bit more tolerable on the job site.

Windows.

Ok, here's a follow-up. Here's the house with all of the windows in. Cool stuff!

Windows.

_MG_1799, originally uploaded by k_pfeif.

Well, they're in. The large ones are in, too, but I haven't gotten around to downloading those photos yet. Not very exciting, anyway.

In!

_MG_1779, originally uploaded by k_pfeif.

The windows are here. They're not in yet, but they're here.

Out!

Interior

Here's an exciting view of the interior. We're standing in the great room and looking toward the front door.

Framing continues...

I know, exciting stuff. Yes, they're still framing the home. They've had some trouble with the trusses, as it's been windy. It's shaping up, however. I would categorize the home design as short and stout.
