We got back to Angel about 4:30 or so in the evening. It was so good to see Jim - always feels like you are gone longer than you really are! Jim was excited to show my mom the carriage house for the first time in person - rather than her just seeing it on this blog! I was glad to catch up on all that he'd done while I was gone.
Yesterday, he worked on getting the next piece of drywall up. Again - the round window sticks out so far that it's difficult to get enough screws in to hold it in place so that he can cut the window out.
He had to make some special blocking to hold it in place at the bottom...
As well as on the sides...
But he got it up and the window cut out as well as the bottom piece on. This wall is done and looks amazing! I can't tell you how different it looks to walk into the stairwell and have it look like a finished room!
Jim still had to be mindful of the wasps and go out when they weren't swarming as much, but he got the last of the shingles attached!!! Trim pieces are all that are left!
He got started on the rake trim pieces...
He also got the next piece of drywall cut and in place in the laundry room - he just needs to fasten it down.
My mom and Jim at the property!
