The roof goes up

And the roof goes up on the new place. Tomorrow they hope to get the rest of the plywood up with the tar paper. It is supposed to rain this weekend and we'll see where the new tropical depression/storm/hurricane will go.

Framing

Framing started today, Monday, and the window was taken out of the back room.

Construction and Honors

Construction on Ted's mother's apartment has finally commenced. The foundation has been poured along with an adjoining patio. Framing was delayed by Hurricane Humberto, but it should get going next week ( Sept. 17-21). I am working hard at school. I just received the Beauregard Parish High School Teacher of the Year award at the recent Beauregard School Board meeting. My prinicpal said some nice things about me to the board. They also honored all of the school nominees and the Junior High and Elementary Parish Teachers of the Year. I don't have any pictures of that event, but I am trying to upload some construction pictures. Our computer had to be replaced and the new system is harder to use right now.
