Construction- End Of Day One

The "visible" ants are all dead. (good news) None came into the house. (better news) The rafters are riddled with ant trails where they ate the wood. (bad news)  From the outside eaves all the way up to the skylight. (worse news) We have no idea if there are more we can't see, but everyone is very, very happy that no ants traveled into the house. Yet.

A brace of many two by fours is holding up the skylight.  Right above G's chair at the dining room table.  (oddly worrisome)

No construction tomorrow but on Thursday they are here straight thru.

We finally have "steamy" August weather.  84.  Hot. Sunny.  These guys were up on the roof, in the hot sun, with huge ants.  Not fun.

So---- not so good, but not so bad.
