Wind turbine goes up (yesterday)

Drywall mudding is complete down stairs (except for a few spots around the stairs that got dry walled after stairs went in).  Stairs (no railing yet) went in last Friday (forgot to post and take pictures).

Will add some pics (hopefully tonight).  Kitchen cabinets may go in today (nope, not until next week).

A bunch of catch up photos (pretty random order as is a pain to move them around):
