Week 6, Day 37 - Main Floor

The main floor has been completely sheathed. It's probably standard practice, but they put down the floor and then caulked the seams between the panels. I know our last house didn't have that, and I thought it was quite cool. Some of the pics were taken around noon, and the rest came around sunset.

I *love* the view!

Yay! It's so fun to watch houses go up.

Our "Scrapbook"

I've never been proficient at scrapbooking, but I wanted a way of capturing the building of our new home. A blog is the perfect way for two "techies" to accomplish the artistry of capturing memories.

We moved from the Midwest to the East Coast in October 2008. We found our building site in November 2008, and broke ground in October 2009.

Henceforth, The Building of Blackthorn Ridge.
