Yesterday started off with nailing all the new rafters to the top of the porch beams.
By the end of the day, the plywood sheathing was on the roof.
View from the other side. The gable end in the middle of the roof has yet to go on.
With the roof on, we can finally start to get a sense of the scale.
Mom and I took the opportunity to stand out on the proto-porch and appreciate our new view and test out how spacious it feels. Can't wait to sit out there with a cup of coffee!
In other news, all the corner boards and the water table trim around the basement is installed. It's almost time to put up the siding, which will slide in behind the trim boards. Also that bathroom window is going to get replaced before all the siding is up. It's not done yet, but comparing this shot to a similar one (in the "what's under that vinyl" entry), it's come a long way!
