roof / insulation / siding

We successfully received a mechanical and framing inspections. The rafters are painted and the windows are fully installed.
Today insulation was installed but we had a little trouble with the inspection. Steve will contact the inspector to let him know that the main roof rafters are 2X8 not 2X6 as he had thought. The porch is built which makes it very easy for anyone interested to be able to walk through the house at any time.
The roof is done - black comp shingles; looks great. Sheet rock is going up in places where insulation is not an issue and Frank has been showing us how to put the metal siding panels together on the back of the house.
We are almost a week behind schedule at this point but everyone is willing to start coming in early/leaving late, or to come in during a weekend.
Brent brought a few guests today and they were all impressed with the house which of course made us feel really great about the project.
Tomorrow the sheet rocking and siding continues.
