No News is, well, no news.....

There's not much to report the last two weeks or so. Arne's been finishing little odds and ends while we wait for windows to be delivered. The siding crew were to start last Wednesday but got a little delayed and are slated for next week. The heating/gas man was also delayed but without windows and siding there's not much reason to heat! Stay tuned for more progress......and keep the fingers crossed wet storms continue to hold off a little while longer.

More pictures

Each week adds more and more. Check out the new pictures of walls and structure. Arne decided it was too difficult to save the old bathroom as it was due to rain damage. Or maybe he just likes demolition? In anycase all but that jacuzzi tub of Colleen's is demolished and the walls expanded to make it a little less tight. The shower will be flipped to the other side to accomodate the new door position and then tiled rather than the tiny pre-fab. The walls were pushed out some taking space from the mud room but giving elbow room to the rest of the bathroom. For those that don't know the story Colleen found the jacuzzi tub in a back corner of Lowe's where they put damaged goods. (Okay I was lost looking for something, it's not a fabric store after all). Anyway, when she approached a manager to ask if he would sell the tub at a discount because there was a crack on the ledge (not where water sits) the gentleman said sure, "how about 50$?" Needless to say it is a prize posession not just because of the price but the comfort it brings to sore joints. It was the one thing that absolutely could not be touched in the remodel. Arne came close but the tub is safe, and truly the only thing so far that was left untouched!!! Hopefully the next update will show roof and siding done........expect the weather to improve once we have that done since it hasn't co-operated so far!!!

Now we're covered...

Well the trusses went up, then the dry sheathing and tar paper so Monday we get our roof on. The windows are ordered so ten days before they come but there's always things to do. Arne is at it this weekend and we'll try to add an update Monday (that is if he figures out how to take pictures on his phone, Daniel and I stayed home so he's on his own technology wise)......

Doesn't anyone have any comments???? Let us know your thoughts!
