This workday was a little more difficult than normal. Our Habitat advisor Bo was MIA again, and so we didnt end up getting tools until 10 am, which left us standing around for an hour. But, we also discovered that the stairwell on the second floor was not quite in place, so adding the joists for the stairwell for the third floor had to be adjusted. Still we managed to not get rained on despite the dark clouds and even managed to get some framing done, some plywood laid down on the third floor, and joists hung around the stairwell on the third floor.

One of the framed walls we added was for the stairs on the first floor, which required removing the nice ladder platform to add the wall and then put it back. The second picture is where we left off at the end of the day on the second floor. You can see we close to finishing the joists for the third floor and can get focused on putting subfloor down.

Finally, here is my take on an artistic photo of our house in progress. Enjoy!
