Raising the Roof

Just a couple of weeks ago, the new home being built behind us was not very weather-tight and now just see the changes. It was good entertainment (yes...we are hard up for entertainment) to watch them use a crane to lift the roof pieces and parts up to be fastened in place. Between rainstorms and a couple of copious snowstorms which immediately melted, it can't have been that much fun working out there. The builder says it is his 'cold weather' house, since he is building it in winter.



I felt sorry for them slipping and sliding around out there in the snow.



Today they put the windows in. It looks like roof materials up there ready to go on soon. Just a few hours after this picture was taken, the blizzard hit. So far it has not stopped. I bet the workers will be happy to have a relatively dry place to work inside there now.
