We left the lake at about 1:00 on Monday and went to look at outsides of other people's houses. Lyle asked us to have our shingles picked by Wednesday (July 4th), and we didn't really have a clue as to what we wanted. We drove around Lac Du Bonnet, Beausejour (I know, you're probably all asking why Beausejour...), and Lorette. We found a few that we liked, and from playing around with the house and Microsoft Paint program (quite advanced, if you ask me) earlier in the week, we've decided on dark grey shingles, and most likely a reddish stucco exterior with white trim, but we're still flip flopping.
We stopped by the house on the way to Lorette, and found Murray the Framer and one of his workers there, working hard...well, they were just cleaning up from working for a couple of hours. Murray said that he was there working on Sunday too. Poor guys, they were both just drenched with sweat.
They got the trusses up on the porch frame, and they had most of the plywood up on the roof of the garage.
Here is a view of the house from each angle:
