The walls come down

Finally... all of the walls, interior and exterior are DONE!!! Today the last walls of the old house were demolished and the final layout of the addition can be seen. Below the image is from the new back mud room looking towards the NE corner of the kitchen. The big window to the right is the window above the kitchen sink and the window to the left is the drive through window.

The following image is looking back from the NE corner of the kitchen towards the entrance to the mudroom. The white flush door that is open goes out into the garage and you can see the profile of the old back door just beside this. This door will be removed soon. You can see on the floor where the corner of the old house was and where the new addition begins.

This final image is from the top of the stairs looking towards the SE corner of the family room. There are two sheets opf the P2000 insulation leaning up against the garden door to the back yard.
Hopefully by the end of the day all of the exterior walls will have insulation. It is "too soon" for this in the construction schedule but "not soon enough" according to the inhabitants of the house. The Insulation will be better than the fleece blankets so that is a plus.
