Restoration Updates - Summer 2006

As the Spring quickly turns to summer a lot of progress has been made on the house during April and early May.   Unfortunately the wooden shingle shakes' delivery has been postponed for another month.  However, that has stopped the Milton Freewater crew!

Roofers came in April to install the felt paper on the roof and MF crew installed the dormers and windows.   Interior workers have finished skirt boards & are now working on baseboards.   The side walls of the enclosed galleries are now be completed as their windows are being installed as well.   Electricians have installed lights in main house and have pre-wired the house for all future needs.

Stay tuned for more updates!!  Enjoy the pictures.
