This is a short week with a Monday holiday and a rain day on Thursday. The crew is working on the framing and they will be working on the framing for many weeks to come. Here is a picture of them getting ready to put in a support post. In this picture, taken from the Southeast corner, you can see the wall between the game room (which has no outside walls yet), and the living room. You can also see the second floor’s floor over the living room.

The architect and builder met with the siding people today and everything went smoothly, although it will be around 10 weeks until we can get the siding on site.
Meanwhile I struggle with TV selection. I need a 4K 65″ TV where the WiFi and Bluetooth can be disabled and the remote can be IR. I am having trouble finding one, but the search continues.
Soon the town will run water from the street into the house. The meter will be on the garage, when the garage is built, and the pipes will run in front of the garage, in front of the house and enter the basement well under the pantry window.
We decide to use the scrap bluestone from the old house as the steps down to the basement door, which will be easier on the feet than gravel. We also talked about changing the proposed finish on the basement exterior walls to a stone veneer, although that still needs to be selected.
Days since we moved a wall: 21.
