Tom, our builder, is really enjoying his work right now. At least I think that's what it is. Surely, it's not the anticipation of his upcoming cruise for his 20th anniversary....
No, he really is excited because he can see that the project is going well...knock wood.
Now, the original Pope-Leighey house has a flat roof. OUR roof is going to be oh so slightly hipped because as anyone who has ever taken a tour of a Wright house knows, his roofs leaked. The two pictures here are showing the very, very thin wedged added wood on top of the roof joists.
This small incline/decline will ensure the rain leaves the roof quickly and not hang around waiting for an uninvited, dripping entry into our home.
On another note, Pat got nervous and on his evening walk, went by and remeasured the living room... I don't know what he would have done if it wasn't right at this point... I think the concrete footprint, for good or ill is what we have to deal with. Thankfully, his worries were unfounded and it was all good.
