D'Alessio House

From the architect's (Bill Gittings) report

Today we finished the insulation and misc. framing. I will call in for inspections for Tuesday so that we can start drywall. We are on for the revised schedule to finish at the end of August for the homeowner's kids to start school in September. Tom and Tim led volunteers to finish a few eaves, the side wall siding, and siding up to the front porch roof. We need to come up with a way to finish above the porch roof.

Ed and I will call in the drywall order and order cabinets.
