We got the service door installed this weekend. We also installed 8 of the 9 windows for the first floor. We could have gotten the 9th one in but the interior framing and sheathing right at that window rough opening took a pretty good dowsing of water in a rainstorm last week. We knew the subfloor installed for the 2nd floor would have leaks, but I didn't expect (or, at least I hoped) one of the areas of water penetration to be right at a wall. Anyway, the framing was soaked. That's not so bad. The OSB wall sheathing also got pretty wet. That's a little bit of a bigger deal. We're gonna allow this area to dry out before we proceed. The time saved by passing on this window was shifted to caulking some of the seams in the subfloor.

Anyway...

This one was taken late in the day, when the sun sets over the far end of the pond.

This is pretty much the same shot, the following morning when the sun comes up over the trees behind us.
