05_15_2012 Bit more Progress; Big Mayhem Starts Tomorrow!

Lots of fun at the house today. The front deck and porch were started. Check out the size of that circular saw! Yowza!
Given it was the area at the front door being worked on, I couldn't easily get out and take a lot of photos. I was busy inside anyway. No matter how much packing I do, there is more that needs to be packed. It would have been easier to just pack the entire house and move out!
The framer was superb (and the workers have all been). Lots of pounding and banging and a few things flying around inside. :/ 
By the end of the day, you  can see what we have.  As we had hoped, it really ties the new room into the existing house. And the pitch of the roof is really nice. Not sure why, but I'd worried that it would be too flat and out of place looking.
So tomorrow is the big punch through date. The wall between the living room and the new room comes down. The wall between the kitchen and dining room comes down. The kitchen and dining ceilings come down.And, we have a new player!!! The sheetrock on the wall in the Master bedroom comes down. See the blank wall on the top right of our home? New window going in as of today. Hence the additional packing done today. Hopefully I'll get some new photos up tomorrow.
