These pictures are from the past two weeks of construction.  All the roofing is finally completed including the front porch roof, the south side of the home is completed, all the fiberglass is installed in the stud cavities inside the home, the vapor barrier has been installed in the ceiling, and 140 sheets of dry-wall are ready now for installation.  Tomorrow we are having a bbq on-site to commemorate the students achievements and the plumbers should be installing the in-floor heating package.  Next week, the dry-wall will hopefully start going up and the class will move outside to work on more gable end siding.  Lots more to do!
