DAY 14 - After the rain

A shot of the back of the house. The workers cut in a new beam (more holes in the roof) and began the back wall.
Side walls were sheeted today.
The rafters were finished on the upper part. I was assured that the roof would be on and felt down by Friday.

3 Day rain delay. It poured here March 17th and 18th. A neighbors rain gage measured 4-inches. We had all we could do to keep the water out. We had some damage to interior drywall and carpeting, some of which will be taken out anyway. The sun was out this afternoon so we should start drying out.
