View from my kitchen window

OK, so my sanctuary/grandson room is coming right along.
Yesterday was a very productive day:
The boys worked diligently all morning, until the rain came and they had to stop.  But they managed to install the pipes for the heating system, and the building inspector had to to come by to approve the project to this point before they installed the floor sheathing and covered it all up.
It passed!
And today?
Well, they arrived bright and early again this morning but before further building could begin, they first had to mop up the near-swimming pool that had collected.
And then they went away and waited for the sun to dry out the plywood before they proceeded.
We had to go out for some errands and when we got back they were already on site and back at it.
At 1:15pm, they were almost finished applying the sheathing:
By 1:45pm, the sheathing was installed:
And by 2:10pm, the worksite was covered with a tarp, to protect it from the elements for the next 15 days while my builder goes off to Montana to hunt elk!  (They are calling the tarp my "green carpet" -- fortunately it happens to be my favourite colour, "hunter green.")
So until the beginning of October, there will be no further views from my kitchen window to share with you.
Sigh.
