| The roof goes on. |
 | |
| The windows are placed. Bob and Maximino make it look easy, but these are substantial windows and are heavy. |  |
|
| And the exterior doors are hung. |  |
|
| By early October, all the interior walls are framed, and the rough electric and plumbing is complete. |
|
|
On October 28, drywall is in place, and the walls are ready for texture.
|
 |
|
| Outside work is continuing on the deck foundation, siding and trim. |  |
|
| We are using Hardiplank lap siding to keep the look of the old house. |  |
|
| By mid-November, most of the exterior trim is done, and the siding is close to completion. |  |
|
| And cabinet work begins in early December, exactly 100 working days after the beginning of demolition. |  |
|
| We selected french doors for the bedrooms, and raised panel doors elsewhere. All of the doors, even the exterior ones will get clear protective coats and remain unpainted. |  |
