Yesterday morning as soon as I got to work I called the town's building department and scheduled an inspection of our weekend work. I got an appointment for 1PM on Tuesday (today). At 12:30 today I left the office and headed home to meet the inspector. I ended up working from home for an hour waiting for the inspector to show up. At 2 PM he showed up, walked up on the deck, asked me how I liked the doors (I responded with "we love them!"), walked inside, looked at the header, said "ok" and left. One hour of waiting for a 2 minute inspection.
That now gives us the permission to finish off the project. This weekend we will tie all new cabling and outlets into place, build out the wall, and hopefully get some sheetrock up (we'll see how the rest of the stuff goes). I may also get to start putting the shingles back on the outside wall.
There are no new pictures or movies to go along with this post. Check back this weekend for more on the rebuilding of the wall.
