Do we need say how excited we're feeling?
Let's look at the continuing progress from the inside.
The northern half of our front upstairs with the small dormer still in place but the ceiling already gone.
And then with the plaster, lathing, and drywall gone.
We finally got to see what was between the stairwell and front. No hidden treasures or bodies, as it turned out. But we could finally see from one of the front bedrooms to the other.
A spate of wet weather presented a challenge on how to proceed with the "dustpan" dormer that was replacing the old roof line. The answer was by working under a large white tarp. Here you can see a new rafter going into place atop the new front exterior wall. The final old rafters and last bit of asphalt roofing are about to removed.
Here the new rafters are in place under the white tarp. Compare this in the south front bedroom to the first photo in this series.
The front upstairs interior stands free of obstruction apart from the old shell around the stairwell.
Next steps will be the roofing, foam insulation, windows, siding, trim, and flooring.
Can this really be happening?
