Everybody's busy
...which is why our jobsite is so often empty. The subcontractors all have multiple projects, and divide their time between them in different ways. Sometimes I'll find one lone tradesman doing his thing silently at the jobsite, occasionally the place is crowded and so loud we have to shout our conversations.
Yesterday was a crowded day. We met Moses and Moses Jr., the fellows who might do all our cabinetry for us, and walked them through the site. Moses will build the cabinets at his shop, then bring them over and install them when we are ready for them. Zeus and his crew (short for Jesus, which of course is pronounced hay-ZOOSS) is finishing off our rough-framing punch list in the main house, Ivan in the apartment, and Rene must be finding people to help him with the housewrap, as he's gotten a lot of it done.
Loft west-facing windows roughed in, ready for flashing and sealing
Ivan getting the garage closet just right
...hey, the closet has a floor! (and a sturdy one too)
Housewrapping in progress (that's Rene in the window):
