Day 189 - Trusses and windows

(click any picture for larger view)

The crane arrived on Wednesday to lift the rest of the large trusses into place. There are just a few smaller trusses on the ground now, that will be placed once the all the large trusses are installed completely. These are the trusses over the garage.

The windows arrived today (Friday) and some have been installed already. We were concerned about errors in the window order since neither Charles nor we signed off on the order. Unfortunately, there are a couple of mistakes, the most glaring one at this time is that the pewter prairie-style window grills are missing from some of the main windows at the front of the house. The grills are in the transoms, however (which is bizarre).

I find it totally strange that someone at the window manufacturer didn't question this unusual configuration...
