Roof at last

Miraculously we have a roof. 

The heavens finally dried up and the gales stopped a blowin. 

We have had a break in the weather and  the frame and floor is now protected. 

Over the last week the husband has worked extremely hard to get the roof on. With trusty Pete the builder they have hung on firmly,  butt cheeks clenched and hoisted tin in place. The hard part is now done and we should see some very significant work happening over the upcoming weeks. 




Tomorrow we are off to the hardware for more supplies, namely the vapour barrier which will wrap the house like a big present. 

I am sourcing a local mill to provide us with our hardwood external cladding. 
That should be a blogworthy experience when we visit.
