Yesterday, the guys got started on building the walls for the master bedroom/bathroom and completed 4 courses of block on the side and back walls. Johnny had to work out the additional pipe joints as the back wall was being built.
While all of that was going outside in the cold, windy air, Luis continued the installation of the ceiling and walls in the downstairs bedroom.

Troy and I pulled electrical wires until 10:45pm, so I decided to write yesterday's post this morning. Today, Chris and Tony will continue working on the outside walls, while Luis finishes installing the remaining wall board in the downstairs bedroom. I have to pack up more stuff in my current radio room and move it up here with the rest of the things that have taken up residence with me and my computers!
