Small thing but the big tree out back was trim to accommodate the addition. Hard to tell from the pictures but the air space above the dirt is where the new structure is going to go.
Speaking of structure, the framer Paul was by yesterday to review the site. Everything on track, though he is going to be ready a few days before the underpinners are. He also told us that he is not able to frame on top of the 4" step created by the underpinning so we're going to lose that space on the three exterior walls unfortunately. It is still going to be more space than the foot+ that was being taken up before but still a little disappointing.
On other front looks like we have a roofing plan - to go with a sloped flat roof as we already have, even though Joey wanted to build a parapet roof - as well as a good lead on windows which might save us a few thousand dollars (wouldn't that be nice for a change)
Finally we order bathroom fixtures from DB today with Eleanor, it's nice to be ahead of the game on that one.
Off to Myrtle tomorrow, more when I return.
