More framing work

No work done yesterday due to the high winds.

Today, the 2nd water line inspection passed, so backfill can proceed now.  Expect that to happen in the next few days.

Today's framing work was continuing to build the roof overhangs and installing the roof decking over the front dormer.  There are a few spots remaining but overall most of the roof decking is now complete.  Also, most of the remaining ceiling joists have now been installed.

Expect demo on the porch dormer portion to begin tomorrow or Thursday.

There is actually quite a bit of space in these little "nooks" at the front of the home.  Good for storage space!

The roof overhang brackets arrived today.  They will be installed after all of the exterior wall sheathing is in place.
