The week of Thanksgiving brought great weather and turned out to be very productive at the house. The roof crew asked if they could work on Thanksgiving. I said "Ummm, sure! If you really want to." It turns out they really did! Now we only have half a roof! (On purpose, don't worry)
The North gable is torn off and the roof of the West gable has been removed in order to facilitate attaching the new construction to the old house.
We've decided on the less expensive tarps versus actual shingles for the roof covering. Plus they really have the aesthetic we're looking for. You know, busted-up but beautiful.
Things look a little different inside with the roof off.
This room was unfinished attic space. It will be a bedroom.
The juniper bushes had to come out so we could access the foundation for repair. And they were ugly.
Already better without the bushes.
As you guessed, it has to come off. . .
It's nice to have family with some very handy skills and heavy equipment!
It came off well, and we only broke one window.
