Looks like a lotta work, too! :)

You don't know the half of it! We're essentially cloning our house and putting the new part on the back at a 30 degree angle! Needless to say, I've been doing a crash course in Chief Architect to learn how to configure roofs, import plot plan and terrain information, etc.

Next week, we hope to have the plan complete sufficiently to take to the lumber company to get a framing plan done with the I-joists and Glulam beams. Then we get to take it to the town for approval. We're not asking for any variances since we planned the design to come close to, but not over the setback lines, so we shouldn't have any trouble with the town building authority. We just don't know how long it will take them to approve it. May be the same day, may be a week, we just don't know.

Ain't we got fun?
