OK ... so it really doesn't look like much of a roof yet ... but it's at least starting to take shape. Here's what the back roof looked like towards the end of last week.
And here it is as of the end of the day today. There's still a few more hand framed trusses that have yet to be added to the upper portion of the roof, and all the trusses from the balcony to the chimney for the covered kitchen area have yet to be added, but we're back to making positive progress again.
This picture is actually from where I'm standing on the 2nd floor balcony looking up at the trusses they added. The tarp isn't overly critical since they haven't torn off all of the existing roof line with the exception of the metal shingles. What still remains is the old shingles that were there from before the metal was added.
Meanwhile, one of the guys from my work came over and is in the process of wiring the back workshop while Tina and I continue on in negotiations as to whether she gets any space in this area. So far she wants 1/3 of the space and I'm leaning more towards 0.0000000001%. Stay tuned for the results of the Tina/Tom Workshop Treaty Negotiations.
I also had the pleasure this week of attending my granddaughter Kaylyns grandparents day at her school. Tina and I split up with me taking Kaylyn and her taking Ashlyn's class with Tina's Mom, Linda. I don't have pics of Ashlyn here, but Jens blog should have them soon.
Also, another walk late last week out at the Viera Wetlands. This little guy was only about 2 feet long and the zoom on our current camera is REALLY not that great. As such, you can imagine Tina trying to yell at me while taking this, but biting her tongue because she didn't want to scare the poor little fella. Awwwww ... the dilemma's that a good marriage puts people in! :)
New posts coming soon. Hope everybody's enjoying spring ... even our Northern US brethren who are still in the midst of winter regardless of what the calendar says. What was that good old Easter song we used to always sing? "I'm Dreaming of a White Easter". So I guess lets just close with ... Merry Easter everybody!!!
Uhhhhhhh ...that's not right. Let's try this!!!
