The roof is on (in time for winter),
the masonry is virtually finished.

Siding is next...
The driveway was just lined and stacked with rock. The 'bend'
in the rock is for the garbage enclosure.
The view from the underside of the
deck shows the finished masonry
and the newly stained posts and
deck support.
The drywall is being delivered.

Drywalling is scheduled to start as soon as the insulators have finished.
A total of three timber trusses line the length
of the living room.

The top cords and webbing aren't in yet.
Insulation has been sprayed throughout the house.
There are two different kinds of insulation being used;
one is BioBase Soy Foam Insulation - made from
soybeans. The other is Cocoon Insulation, made from
100% recycled paper. For more information, click on the
'Technology' link to the left.
Trusses completed at left with
drywall in place and 'webs' installed.

All that's left is the stain.
The siding is up and
the doors are in.
The master
bathroom shower
tile has been set.

Fixtures and doors
are next on the list...
