 It's August 29th and I've been working on the addition again. This is the front entrance area

unsided. I'm installing Cedar Shakes as a siding (special thanks to Brian Jelley for the "Cedar shakes" and to Cameron Storch for the Solid Cherry Front door!.

At present I haven't gotten the resources available yet for me to purchase the 13 - 2" X 6" X 8' Pressure treated floor joists I need to

complete the full room so I built yet another foundation (pads & blocks) to just extend the room out 10' instead of the full 14'.

Doing it this way let's me at least have a bathroom that's enclosed from prying eyes

 

but not from the forces of nature. That won't happen until I can install the roof and that's not until I can raise the roof on the main cabin

and install the "Loft" into it.

At this point I have decided to go ahead and frame in the front & back walls in their entirety (which explains the 4-2" X 4" studs standing on their own) so that when I can get the floor joists

I will just have to disconnect the one wall and move it out, and redirect my plumbing to the new area for the bathroom.

Here's a view of the North "Highway" wall side I intend to move out another 4'. Siding "behind" that tree is a real toughie!

Today I'll try to get the front sided in it's entirety and maybe get some of the side done also. This is Cameron's dog "Chance"...my buddy!

time to get back to it!
