Since we knew it was supposed to rain this weekend we went out to the lake last night to check out the progress. We got there around 6 pm and the guys were putting on the last shingles! So, they got it roofed just in time since it rained all day today. We grilled and cleaned up the shingles around the yard and burned some more wood scraps in the fire pit. The windows are there so we got to see them in their boxes and weather-permitting they can finish wrapping the house and put in the windows on Monday and Tuesday. If it is nice all week the siding could get done too.
Because it rained all day today we got some errands done and bought a front-load washer and dryer off of craigslist. Dan has done very well buying items on craigslist and also on ebay. He seems to enjoy finding good deals and negotiating with the sellers too. We've really found some great deals doing this buying new items at a cheaper price and sometimes buying used items that are still in good condition. It has been a busy couple of weeks buying everything but we are getting close to the end. We're trying to get everything checked off the list before our next MBA class starts Labor Day week!
The roof is done!
