More Roof Framing (and Concern?)

Driving Kyle back from practice last night (as is our routine), we noticed that there seemed to be more roofing frames above what will be Kyle's room. We couldn't see much in the dark, so I headed back today.

And sure enough, there were the beginnings of framing along that front edge of the room:


But entering the upstairs, I could tell that more had been done... like Jack's room:


As I turned to the right, I've noticed some changes to the wall beyond where the desk would be:

Looks like when they built the wall, they built it too high (since the the area over the desk will have the roof sloping down into a soffit), so now they're chopping down the wall, and refitting the window..

The roof framing, from Jack's room, looking south...


The bathroom's interior section has started...

(this section will have the skylight; the exterior section will be an A frame [as seen from the east])

The roof framing, from Kyle's room, looking north...


Again, in Kyle's room, there's the desk/wall/soffit issue...


The roofing over Kyle's room is incomplete as of now:


Downstairs, the drainage from the upstairs bathroom can now be found in the exterior kitchen wall:


And work continues in the downstairs hall bath:


Slow and steady progress continues...


Hopefully, the workers will take a break tomorrow (as it's the annual blocks-wide garage/yard sale, and finding parking [and fending off potential lumber buyers] will be a hard job to accomplish).

UPDATE: Dana just called. She wanted me to know that Fred will call later today (but he's at the dentist now); he wanted us to know we got his voice-mail of yesterday (which was a polite sending of regrets: he had invited us to a big-group camping trip to Malibu over the upcoming weekend... there's just too much going on). I do really like these guys...
