Drywall -- almost done?

Today was teacher conference day, so I got to see the house near the end of the day, and before it got dark. The drywallers were working hard to get it done before the end of the day, and based on what I saw, they must have been close. This is all very important work, nothing else can be done unless they finish.

Less important work, but far more visible, is the work done on the siding. They are nearly done in the front. The western side is a huge expanse of flat, so doing that should be pretty easy - the electrical boxes and several other mounted boxes are near the bottom edge, so that will be a little complicated, but once they are above that, it should be quick. The back of the house will be a much harder row to hoe. Just feeling the siding, I can tell that it is much betteer quality than what we had at the old house. The corners are nice and solid. At the other house, they were good looking, but not solid. This is good stuff, good work.

We will be able to take a much better look this weekend. If anything else is ready to report, I'll be back!
