Redd Haven Rising II

The second floor is all framed. With the exception of the front and back wall of the middle section. They are waiting for the trusses to arrive before they frame those. In this picture you can see the trusses in the foreground. They put up the front door and bay window and put up the garage walls. They will start putting up the roof today. Yea!
We finally chose our brick and rock. We chose Brandywine brick, it is kind of a reddish brown. We really like it. The name "Brandywine" reminds us of the Shire. Perfect for the LOTR fans in our home- which is really everyone capable of an opinion. The rock is Champagne Ledgestone. These things were harder to pick out that I thought possible. There are so many choices. We looked at hundreds of different brick and rock samples and drove around looking at houses all over Kentucky and Idaho Falls. Glad that is decided.
After a week delay- they should be starting on the roof today. Exciting!
