Mud, Furnace, Insulation

The house continues to make progress.  The mudders have been around twice now.  They have all the seams taped throughout the house and all the nail/screw holes covered over.  They have one more coat before they start sanding.

 Our new furnace has been installed.  However, they still haven't gotten the unit hooked up.  It is a little chilly in the new part of the house, but that will get fixed in a week or so. 
 The insulator's came and finished blowing insulation in the attic and above the garage.  We still intend to add "side walls" to the floor of the storage area above the garage, we just haven't gotten that far yet.

 The siding and gutter are finally finished.  The last thing done was the second dormer (center of pic) and between/above the garage doors.  I am happy with the color and the way it turned out.  It looks much prettier than the nasty whitish siding that was on the house! 


We got somewhere around an inch of snow on Thursday evening / Friday morning.  Thursday night we moved enough stuff around in the garage to get both of our work vehicles in out of the weather!  We have been parking inside ever since.  I know we will get kicked out again when they plaster the garage ceiling and possibly a few more times, but it sure was nice not to have to scrape vehicles on Friday morning!
