Framing Starts!

Friday brought the start of the framing crew. We were excited to move beyond the masonry and start seeing some wood onsite. Materials were loaded on the site a little work was done to frame aroung the foundations. The biggest change was seeing the stairs framed at the basement. This gave us a sense of the layout of the house once this core area was established.

Over the weekend Matt and I worked at the house. We needed to move the elm tree stumps in order to free us some space onsite for a dumpster (which we gladly welcome as we are both tired of seeing workers' cups and daily trash). Also, we installed some perimeter drainage on our own to make sure that we don't have any basement leaks in the future. We can't count how many times we were interupted by neighbors/friends that stopped by!
