Shingles

There's been virtually no progress on site over the past two days, thanks to the snow and ice making it treacherous on the scaffold and too cold to mortar the last few roof tiles in place on the bedroom.

However, up until the weekend good progress has been made. There are only a few ridge tiles left to be fixed onto the bedroom to complete the roof. It's also been great to see that the carpenter has started to fix the red cedar shingles onto the kitchen roof. He's not done many rows yet, and it is a fairly time consuming task as they are all nailed on, but has done enough to show that it'll look great when complete. The cedar also smells fantastic!

Highlight of the weekend had to be seeing two deer in the wood adjacent to the 'orchard'.
