House Progress Friday August 18

The crew is putting up the pillars on the porch. It was agonizing picking these things out. I really wanted them to be a bit larger, but the base of the larger ones were too big to fit on the concrete stoop. Future customer note: If you want to do pillars, choose the size before pouring the foundation to assure there is enough room.

You learn something new every day.







This one is the basement pillar. It is wider and fits nicely don't you think? I know... a little funny with no sheet rock yet. :)


















The skakes were installed on the gables. I am very happy with the way they look. It's beginning to really take shape. Although I don't think Gabe had a lot of fun putting them on. :)

I just realized it says "skakes" instead of "shakes". Duh. I don't feel like changing it though...

The bigger question is: When do we get to come over and drink coffee in the new breakfast nook?
