Into the night

Scott, Greg and Ian met up at the house yesterday after work and began framing what used to be the exterior wall of the house...

 This wall is now what divides our bedroom from the bathroom/hallway

 They worked well into the night, making sure to close off as much as they could to keep security somewhat intact
