Barn-Raising

Alright...so it's not really a "barn raising" in the traditional sense of the term, but we are working hard to complete this project so we can head out to Colorado and be reunited as a family!

This past weekend has been full of major accomplishments. We hired a group of people to hang the sheetrock! It was installed on Saturday, and let me tell you that it completely changes the look of the cabin! One can no longer walk through the front door and easily see through the framing to the back windows. Unfortunately, this does make the place feel smaller. I do not expect that we will become fixated on that fact for too long before we become excited about all of the other developments that will soon take place. In the meantime, here are a few pictures of the progress.









These are quite incomplete for our family web site. Unfortunately I am rushed at the moment and will not be able to update our photo albums until later this week. When that has been done, you can see the progression from framing to insulation, to sheetrock. We have also recorded a video tour that I will post when I have the 2 hours to upload it!
