Insulation

8/15 - Invaders in the sunroom

Chris started tiling the sunroom. Friday he said, "whatever you do, don't walk on the tiles." But he left the door and windows open, and it looks like a mother and baby racoon came in and walked through the mortar! We're not sure where they made their exit. Hopefully they're not hanging out in the attic.

Not very exciting, but now we need a sump pump

8/16 - Solar installation begins; new front windows

Yay! New Wider Garage Door

Stone tiles


The shower in our master bath will be tiled all black to remind us of the black lava on the Big Island. These tiles are made of actual stones, and we had to treat them prior to tiling so they have a rich black color. We put them outside in the sun to dry.

8/3 - Windows and Doors


All the rear exterior windows and doors are now in, including the three skylights. The only ones remaining are the living room and dining room, and they will be installed next week. We really like the cobalt blue, which will look nice when the house gets painted green.
