Potlight Installation

I finally got around to taking the camera out to get a few pictures. We enjoyed a wiener roast for supper this evening. We should have another productive weekend, hopefully finishing off the shingles on the north side of the house, as long as it isn't raining. I took a few pictures of the potlight housing, way up in the ceiling (I think the peak of the ceiling is about 24 ft, so the top lights are maybe at about 21 ft).
I ordered the fireplace this morning, and it is going to be dropped off tomorrow, so we can work on getting that installed over the weekend as well. The "stair guy" came out to measure the steps on Wednesday, and he should be able to have those ready either by tomorrow, or Tuesday. We would still need to build the landing before they are able to be installed.
Our house is technically "locked up". We installed the garage entry door, so now we can lock the main floor. If someone really wanted to get in, they could still gain entry through a couple of upstairs windows, or get into the basement, but at least there is a little bit of deterrent.
I also did some excellent Tyvekking yesterday in the upstairs bathroom dormer, and then Todd and I put in that window. We are down to only have 7 windows left to install, and 1 door.

Todd has about 5 rows of shingles started on the north side of the house. Hopefully this will allow Todd and Dad L to start right to things on Saturday morning.


Chris, Denise, and Alyssa joined us for the wiener roast this evening.
