We had a break in the gloomy weather and I got some photos of the floor.
The white oak flooring (a large percentage was harvested from the site and the rest was local) is 5.5" wide. Most of the wood from the site was cut as a rift. There is typically a lower yield of wood with that type of cut, but the wood grain is very straight, stable and has great flecks that bring depth to the wood. Notice how the winter sun is so low in the horizon, that even 20feet into the space the sun is shines.
The exterior wood siding is almost complete.

Here are a few interior shots of the tile work & stairs...a little dusty





The house on Allen road has been moving along. The tile in the bathrooms has been installed. The hardwood floors (Oak hardwoods from the site)will be complete the 14th! The exterior wood siding looks great. The rear screened in porch has it's FSC Ipe installed. Here are some photos taken on an extra grey day...
