Raise the Roof and More
Since returning home from The Bahamas in mid April we have been working very hard on our cottage renovation. Rob spent a good deal of the first 6 weeks doing the prepatory work for Jurgen our builder. Rob saved all of the cedar timbers from the roof and hopes to re-use them as trim on our windows and doors. Jurgen, along with his helper John have just finished our green steel roof. We can finally be dry once again. Rob is busy preparing to do the plumbing and electrical while Jurgen and John are building decks this week. The next major thing will be putting in the new windows and doors and doing the insulation.
It is a very exciting time for us. As for me...I am the site manager,cook, gopher, cleaner upper and designer. It is very neat to see what one has drawn come to life, albeit a bit scary at times too. I don't enjoy the process quite as much as Rob does; however I am thrilled to see my cottage dreams come to life.
