Ready for Tyvek

.
Well, the roofing is essentially finished today (except for some trim work, I think). No rain for the next few days, either.
.
You can see one of the two solatube locations in this photo towards the right side of the picture (looks like a good sized hole in the roof, because it is). Our builder got the larger solatube size for additional light - should work out well, I think.
.
The 400-amp panel and phone box are installed (side of the garage), but I don't know what the time frame is for electricity hookup. I sent an email off to SMUD to get more information on that.

You can see the larger of the 2 AC/heater units here. Thankfully our builder had them run all the ducting up high and out of the way so we can move around relatively easily in the attic if we need to. The units are York Affinity 9.C series, one 5-ton and one 2-ton.

These photos were taken in the morning, but by this afternoon we had some of the exterior siding/trim delivered and two rolls of Tyvek HomeWrap sitting in the dining room for installation. He should have some of the Tyvek installed as early as tomorrow. Windows arrive Tuesday, I think. Maybe the exterior doors, too? He said he is going to start working on the siding soon, but the Tyvek comes first and windows soon after. I think the siding will find it's way on as he gets the time between all the other bits and pieces he's working on.

The cabinet/flooring folks are coming out Tuesday for measurements/discussions with the builder and us. Should be an interesting afternoon (and probably expensive, unfortunately).
