Pizza Monday
We made pizza on the grill for the guys today. Yum. …. and, while they guys weren’t eating pizza, the foundation wall was built and the roof overhangs on the east side were cut off. Yay.

The back porch overhang
The back porch roof has been removed. I guess we will no longer be sheltered from the sun or rain when using the little out door grill.

Siding removal
Jim starts pulling the siding from the north side of the house, where the bump out will happen and also from the current roof overhangs. Much of this siding is 1″ thick, clear, aromatic, cedar.
Prepared for construction
Our oil fill pipes, air conditioner compressor and propane tank have all been removed from the north side of the house… we are ready for work to begin.
