We spent 2 1/2 hours this Sunday continuing our never ending work in removing invasive plants. This week we pulled out a bunch of buckthorn among other things, but we are stymied by the fact that some of the buckthorn that should be removed is actually in the wetlands, or in one case, it holds the wetland boundary flag, which we are not allowed to touch. We will need to go back to the Natural Resource Commission to get a permit to remove those.
Here is a picture of the waterfront, with Daphne for scale. The water is down some but still high.
Meanwhile, there has been slow progress on the framing of the house. At this point almost all of the exterior walls on the first floor are in place, although the undersiding is incomplete in areas. I have two pictures this week, from opposite corners.
Here is the usual corner view.
And here is the opposite corner. The game room is in the foreground (the porch has not been added yet). There is no second floor over the game room or the master bedroom, and you can start to see the interesting roof line on that side of the house.
No construction video this week. There was a memory card error. I will use a different memory card in the future.
