A Roof Over Our Heads!

Grant Douglas Teahen Purdy
Finally! Despite several setbacks, the roof is done! Another month has flown by since my last post, and a lot has been accomplished. Not just the roof, but also exterior insulation, doors, framing inspections, etc etc. Oh, and we had a baby! We welcomed Grant Douglas on November 2.


Grant's first visit to Northport - all bundled up!
The exterior work was completed none too soon, as we've already had over 18" of snow this month. Unfortunately, Ben and his dad did spend many bone & finger chilling days working on the roof and numerous other outdoor tasks.


Metal roof so we don't have to do it again!
Now, we get to move on to the fun (?) stuff - drywall has begun! The ceiling of the apartment is done, as we prepare for Advanced Insulation to come in next week to spray foam and blow in insulation in the whole place...it will be toasty;)

 Believe it or not, I'm actually starting to think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. We certainly have a lot to be thankful for! xoxo

Ben up on the lift putting the final pieces on.
Drywall is up!
