Shingles

We had to pick shingles from a picture. I just couldn't do it so I found out where in the area they were. I drove to the place and picked them from a sample board. If you had to pick from a picture taken from the manufactures web site, what one would you pick.

And the builder is....



Dave the builder has his new logo ready to go. Figured I would give him credit for all the work he's done on our house. One day soon, maybe I'll be linking a web site to his logo.

Walking around in the house.

Look what we can walk around on now.

Side note: Our hard wood floor we picked out got sold out from under us. (ha) Thought we lost a great deal. New shipment came in and we're back on with the floor we wanted.
