All trussed up

So of course after the photo that Steve from Wayne Homes sent us we couldn't wait to get to see the house progress this weekend. We got to walk around the second floor and check out the roof in person. We were a little perplexed at the living room ceiling. We have planned (and paid for) a vaulted living room ceiling. Soooo, long story short we got in touch with Steve who assured us that we were correct, and the roof trusses were the wrong ones for over the living room. This came down to approximately 13 trusses.
We have tar paper and ice guard on the roof

The tub surrounds have arrived

The temporary construction stairs. Easy to climb, sketchy to descend.

The WRONG trusses.

The 2 story foyer. The front door will be in the bottom open area with a plant ledge at the window.

The second story framing--very nervewracking trying to make sure that the 3 year old doesn't topple through a window opening.




Also of concern is the dampness along this foundation wall. Steve from Wayne Homes is aware and we will be monitoring for it to dry out--- and stay dry.

Less damp over here, but still worth mentioning
