This week did not go as I had hoped. We had rain early in the week, then the framers blew a generator. Since their boss was out of town, they didn't want to take the initiative to get another. That didn't happen until Friday. Consequently nothing happened Monday, the generator went out Tuesday making it a short day. Wednesday and Thursday nothing happened, and finally just yesterday they got a new generator and about a half day's work!
We have rain due today, so I wish more had been done. But, as you can see, the floor between down and
upstairs is in. We are assured that they'll be there and hard at work Monday. This crew is really fast. The other house in the neighborhood that they are working on is ready for shingles already. So, I'm hoping we'll be in that position by end of next week.Meanwhile we decided to give up on the soapstone counters I've been so determined to have for the kitchen. It is done so seldom on the West Coast that suppliers are few and far between and fabricators have little experience. So, we are going with granite. We selected that this week as well as the hardwood for floors. The more we can have ready to go, the better.
Stay tuned.
