Joe and his crew are moving right along on construction, and we now have a complete set of rafters! We are really starting to get a sense of what the whole thing will 'feel' like when it's finished.

| We have rafters! Those are 2x6s, which just continues the feeling of super-duper burliness in our 'little big house'. Also, note the general cloudiness in all of these pictures--it finally cooled off and we got a big dose of marine air. Very refreshing during what's been an incredibly hot and dry summer here. |

| The sheething is yet to be cut to the roof angle but I expect that will happen soon |
 |
| Each of those rafters has a pretty complex bird's mouth cut where it attaches to the double top plate, and the bit that the eaves will attach to is about 1/2 as thick |
This is so cool! Really enjoy following the process.
