Week 21

More milestones this week!


Monday

Good progress on exterior trim:





And the rough electrical work passed inspection:



Meanwhile, the back neighbor isn't living in his house while it's under construction, & his rose bush is growing out of control, intruding into our yard over the top of the fence. It doesn't really belong here, but it's the only pretty spot in this construction site of a yard, so I've let it be:




Tuesday

Trim completed!



Stairs reattached!




Wednesday

The beginnings of the platform the tub will sit in:



The hardware for the sliding French doors was installed: 


Mr. Bunkport also spent time meeting with some neighbors who are dissatisfied with the way the south wall was rebuilt, explaining to them why it had to be done that way.


Thursday

The rough framing passed inspection, and we got the ok to install the sheetrock:



Friday

Insulation made out of recycled denim started going in:





As well as some standard insulation in the bathroom:



Saturday

They came in on Saturday this week, too, to finish up some odds and ends before the sheetrock goes up, including finishing insulation in the ceiling of the new downstairs room:



And venting the bathroom fan:



Next up: sheetrock, installing the tub, and removing the old tile in the kitchen.
