April 22, 2009: Main Level Begins

We went back in the evening (previous post was from lunch pictures) after the workers were done for the day after completin some of the main level framing. The sun was setting and there are some ridges not too far to the West, so night falls quickly as you'll notice.

Looking at the house from the road. You can see that as the walls go up, so does the Tyvek.


View from the brushpile. We in general tried to line up the positions of windows and doors. Here the French doors on the west side of the great room on the the main level aligns with the window on the west side of the basement. Eventually, that will open out onto a deck. But not in this construction project. (Gotta prioritize spending expenses / times.)

Me in front of the basement. Nothing new was done in the basement, but this is when this picture was shot.

Night! Preethi inspects the wall on the South side of the great room that will be stood up tomorrow. If you look closely, you can see where that wall will have yet another French door.
The French door from the great room that will eventually lead to the deck. We're not adding the deck now, but it's on our 5-yr plan.

Window on the North side of the great room.

The main level staircase opening, In the back is the area for the kitchen.


Detail of the subfloor constuction in the kitchen where the fridge will sit. This was another hole in the morning.
