The roof is done, and that’s the big change on the elevation. After we get the exterior painted, there won’t be a lot of change to the view from the street. There’s still a few bits of ductwork left to finish, and now that the bulk of it it in, the plumber is moving ahead […]

Those guys were working in 100 degree weather (that’s about 40 in real degrees) up on the roof. I can understand why they’d want to get it done quick. I snapped a couple shots from the road and went right inside to inspect other stuff.

It’s exciting to see three subs going at once on the […]
