We're making some serious progress on this project! We can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel getting brighter and brighter by the day!! Tomorrow (May 29th) we are getting the roofing specialists in to complete the roof. Tomorrow will be a BIG day for us because the roof we're getting is AMAZING!! We're really excited about it... pictures will follow. It's a high-tech rubber material that is pulled taut over the roof and is weatherproof for up to 30 years.
Anyway, we're moving forward and looking forward to the first & second weeks of July when we should reach completion of it all.
Enjoy ... :)

What was the lean-to and is now shaping up to be a bathroom & utility room with skylight.
