Man did we move this morning.  Rain was called for 11am so all five of us put down sub-floor.
Brian, Evan, John, Rob and I cutting, gluing and screwing down the floor as fast as we could and we just finished as the rain and wind started.
We were a little worried that the wind might take a few sheets of sub-floor and send it into a neighbours yard.  All the while being treated to tales of John and Rob working on sites with big wind and them being blown away holding sheets of wood or tarp.

They quit at lunch though so Brian and Evan are working on taking out the wiring from the kitchen and making sure nothing left is live.  I've removed some cabinets from the bathroom that had six screws in one board but only one was holding it up.

We will rest up for tomorrow which is full force demo day.  All hands again with one job in mind and that is taking the addition down.
There may be some tension since Brian wants to keep some of the wood but in a contractors mind that is just wasting time.  I did explain to them Brian is a recycler from way back and he just doesn't like waste.  The compromise will be whatever Brian wants to keep we will toss in the back in a pile and on slow days go and clean the boards off.  That is just so we can get on with the next level before snow hits.

This floor was done.

This floor was done, look up.

This should give us a somewhat protected space.

I really like this moss but it will be gone tomorrow.

A storm approaches.
