Walls!

I started collecting pictures for this post last Monday. So here it goes. 

Monday they started putting up my frame. They got all but the bedroom and garage done. 

The back doors and windows will go in this ginormous hole. They will have the blinds built into the windows. 
The bedroom sliding door hole. It will also have blinds built into the windows. 

Tuesday they finished the frame and started putting the plywood up. 
Wednesday they started the roof. 
It rained Thursday. So no work. 
Friday they worked on the roof. They got the outside boards up. I found out yesterday, when they were up here to finish the roof, that they messed up Friday so they spent time fixing it yesterday. 
Rain again today! Ugh! Hopefully they can finish the roof tomorrow and we can get the plumber and heating and air guys out there.
Rain or any bad weather is a real pain when building a house. I can't wait until the roof is on and rain doesn't hinder us/them from working!!

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
