If you hang out on a construction site you get to listen to songs about trucks and dogs and beer and evil women - this is the radio that provides such music at my house these days. Here's the million dollar question - why do these guys never turn off the radio when they leave for lunch? Every crew that has been here with a radio does the same thing and I noticed this when having work done on my previous house also. Must be drilled into them during some secret construction working initiation ritual.

Framing and plywood walls.

Lisa Call > This is all my junk that just to be in my garage or back porch but didn't fit into my storage locker. I'll need to cover it with a tarp someday but we're having amazing weather here in Denver - perfect for building a house - so no rush.

Lisa Call > This is how things looked tuesday morning. A floor for the laundry room and now the back door to the house is unscrewed and I don't have to walk all the way around the house to take pictures.

Lisa Call > Also finished on monday, which we get photos of tuesday because it's too dark when I get home from work to take photos, the study walls are up.

Jim and Carl are discussing stairs while I'm taking photos.

Lisa Call > Look - it looks like a house! lots of the studio floor is done also.

And nice pile of rocks left over from the sewer. Wonder if they'll sell the extra on craigslist. Want some rocks?

Lisa Call > Eric is hacking a hole in the wall - I'm sure there is a reason but I'm thinking it's just to make my heating bill higher. Fortunately it's going to be warm for a few weeks.

If you look at the window in the center of the house you'll see it's open. The vent hose from my dryer is sticking out the window. This is how I dry clothes these days.

Lisa Call > Lunch time and now the laundry room has walls and a door. Or at least a place to put a door.
