Ty, Doug, and Steve comprised the crew again today.  Ty and Doug pretty much finished the main level sheetrock, then moved down to the lower level where they got about half the ceilings hung.  The two macho men also helped me pull the Romex cable out of the too-small conduit that runs out to the woodshed.  Steve did more of his plumbing thing in the mechanical room.  Sean came by for lunch to inspect progress, give me the next in the continuing series of Goose Creek invoices, and review the construction budget status (which is looking just fine, by the way).  After Sean left, I ran errands in Middlebury and Brandon, including two stops at Green Mountain Electric Supply just because I like Jordan and Alex sooooo much.  Procured the THHN wire needed for the woodshed run, plus assorted goodies for the mechanical room wiring.  Upon return to Fern Lake, wired up the load end on the heat pump and jury-rigged a light in the master bathroom (the correctness of both to be verified by Tom Morrissey tomorrow), then did some serious vacuuming on the main level, now that the sheet rocking is mostly done up there.
