Wall Y'all

After finishing the last small section of subflooring in the northwest corner of the bedroom, I began laying out and marking for the erection of the west wall of 10'4".  The walls will be 8' up to a ledge where the 1 in 12 shed roof will start.  The area between the top of the wall and the roof will be glass in a large, low angle triangle to the taper in back and have glass in the about 12" of front area above the south wall.


Also, after making a fortuitous wrong turn in Lebanon, I stumbled upon a cache of curbed items and then gleaned the material below--some 1x12s, a 10'x10' silver tarp in perfect condition, and several sheets of transparent green roofing material that can eventually replace the worn tin shed roof some day.

My sister and hubby (and dog) are in town to speak to the cabinet maker and the contractor.  She's really pleased with the house as it's progressing and also likes my build.  Glad she's glad.

More tomorrow--hopefully have at least one wall up and stable.
