Rafters are going up, drywall is coming down

Tom and Jim continued today putting the rafters up and framed around doors and window openings. Still a bit undecided on the exact dimensions for the large front windows, but will decide overnight so Tom can frame it all Wednesday.

Inspected the temporary "seal" around the ridge beam and it seem to hold up water OK. View from up here is not too bad...

Rest of the drywall in the kitchen disappeared and most of the real "dirty" work is now done.

Will move a few electrical outlets and rought-in a few new ones (to prep for upcoming kitchen remodel), before we can put in a large beam at the bottom of that wall and then cover it all with plywood to create a shear wall (boxy structures are more prone to resist twisting, and subsequent collapse, in case of an earthquake).
