Today was a beautiful day at the lake! Summer is coming to an end and I want to cherish all the remaining nice days. We made a nice pit stop at Menards in Buffalo on the way to the lake and bought some things we needed for the construction in the 15% off bag. I'm trying to remember the last time I've ever used those discounts at a home improvement store, but couldn't! Before this project we haven't done very many. All day today we cleaned up the wood pieces and stacked them by our fire-pit. Every time we go out to the lake we burn as much of the wood scraps as we can so we always have a big fire going. It is fun to get rid of the mess and enjoy the fire at the same time!
The windows and doors are all in and look great. It was fun to try them out and know that our house is sealed against rain now. We have a bunch of pictures of the windows, and some new views this time. Next week the rough-ins happen with the plumber and electrician hopefully so the guys will be putting in the stairs and some other misc things inside. The siding might also go on, but I'm not sure if they'll have time.
View from the driveway of our new windows and fully wrapped house!
Don't you love the sidelights on our front door? There is a temp door now, but those sidelights are here to stay.
Dan is working away at our wood pile, and here is a view from our fire-pit area at the hammock and the side of the house with the new windows.
Here is the view from our green shed of the retaining wall and side windows. I love the octagon one!
Finally, a front on view of the windows on the lakeside
