The framers have continued work on the upper floor walls and have also done some of the roof framing. Click on pictures for a larger view.
The front walls of the upper level have not been started yet as the heavy Parallam columns haven't been erected yet, but work continues on the interior walls and some of the roof.
Since the back part of this wing with the guest bedroom, bath, and laundry is the only part that will have flat ceilings (which will give us some attic storage), it's the only part of the house that gets pre-fab roof trusses - which have now been all erected.
The rest of the house will have cathedral ceilings and those roof trusses will be stick-built on-site. Here you can see the framers have already erected the scaffolding they will use to build those trusses. Work has slowed down for the Thanksgiving holiday, so we won't see much new progress until next week, but we are happy to see the house starting to take shape with a roof line.
