We have stairs now, which makes getting to the second floor so much easier. There was a moment when I swear we looked like a couple of apes swinging from trees trying to get up there before they installed the bottom half of the stairs. A moderately dislocated shoulder and bruised hip bone gave me a whole new appreciation for a well crafted graduated incline. Sorry, no pictures of the monkeying around.

Stairs, in the process of becoming whole, require delicate navigation.

The view up here is lovely. I look forward to watching this spot change with the seasons.

They added the decking for the roof over the kitchen and the entryway (and the kitchen windows are now in the proper spots).

Some of the trusses were delivered this weekend. I’m hopeful we’ll have at least a partial roof next week.
