Ok..Update. Pictures will be tomorrow, I need light! Driveway is formed up and ready to pour. Weather has been to sketchy to pour thus far. Electrical is all but finished. Wainscotting is finished and stained. Drywall is primed.. Im thinking It will be finished on Tuesday or Wednesday!:beer...

Here is the update. Siding is finished, and looks great. Insulation is in, electrical was inspected this morning...Have a insulation inspection in the AM, then the sheetrock crew will go to work. There is way more storage in the attic than I had thought. Picked up a motion light and a small...
