I took a couple of weeks off from posting due to not so much to see. Most of the work was inside. Rough in for Electrical, Plumbing and HVAC were done early in the month. Barry and I pulled all the ethernet and TV Coaxial Cables.

We attempted to drill the water well, but after 260 feet and a few challenges, Steve the well guy decided to give up and will abandon the well. He will try again after Labor Day. Very frustrating, but things happen.

The garage floor was poured, and walls were insulated. Drywall has been hung, and 3 coats of “Mud” have been applied. Ceiling Insulation was blown a few days ago.

Siding on the West, North and East walls is done. South side will be finished early next week. Stone has been installed on the lower portion of the fireplace chimney.

Wow. Lots done this week. The roof was completed. The front porch is mostly done as well as the back deck. The basement floor was insulated with rigid foam and the in-floor heating coils and manifold were installed. The basement floor and Patio cement were poured.

Most of the windows were installed along with the fireplace.

The septic system was competed in 1/2 of a day on Tuesday. There is a timelapse video below short with my drone. There are also pictures here.

This week had a lot of progress. Finished framing & sheathing the roof. The roofers started. The plumbers put the in-floor plumbing in the basement floor getting ready to pour the floors next week. Front and back walls were built getting ready for windows next week. Xcel Energy ran the conduit for power.

Next week will be busy. Hope to put the basement, garage and patio floors. The septic system will go in next week. In floor heat tubing will be laid down for the basement floor. Power should get hooked up. We may even get a driveway next week.

Timelapse for the week of July 8th. Crane on Monday to lift all of the main roof trusses. Framed a bunch of interior details that we cannot see on the timelapse. Framed up most of the overhangs and added roof sheathing.

I changed the time-lapse to take a picture ever 10 seconds. This extends the video to about 2-1/2 minutes per day. A little longer video, but the detail is much better and smoother.
