Walls and Windows Please
Alright, so to catch up, I’m posting again with more pictures…MANY more pictures! These pictures were taken on different days, about a couple of weeks apart. The house is now to the stage where they are waiting on various inspections and permits for other things and what not, so progress has slowed WAY down. However, the walls are up, exterior siding is on, windows are in, bathtubs are in…The electrical lines, water lines, and air conditioning paths are all set and in place. It was really funny, a couple weeks ago, it looked like they were framing for a fireplace, then a few days after that, gone. I plan on putting in a wood burning stove, a Federal Airtight woodburning stove, in the future. It has been my experience that not only do they heat better during the winter, they are also less of an insulation leak during the summer. Makes perfect sense to me. I know also that a woodburning stove can heat the whole house, not just right in front of it. That’s one part of the winter time at my Oma’s that I’ve always enjoyed…She has a woodburning stove in the den, it heats the whole house. It appears that they are getting ready to brick the exterior, and put in the optional stone, and we’re off to the races after that! I’m getting close to being 60 days out. Exciting, and frightening at the same time…I’m going to own a house!
