Live and Learn

I attempted to install the rest of the Grace Rain and Ice Guard on the roof in 45 degree weather...it wouldn't stick.  Even though installation recommendations say anything above 40 degrees should be sufficient, I suspect the chilliness coupled with the dampness made it unfeasible... Unfortunately the wait for a warmer drier day is longer than usual, as it is the pit of winter....  :(

Haven't posted updated plans etc. in a while...so here they are. Now that all the framing is up....I suspect the plans won't change much from here on out.

Bathroom Fixture Research

It looks like the door to the bathroom is going to be 24" wide...pretty tight!  So if I'm going to finish framing the interior, I should probably order/install any items (like the shower pan) sooner rather than later!  Below are just links to some of the fixtures I'm looking at.
