Stilts and sheetrock

Exciting trip out to the house today--it's sheetrocking time! Notice the truck bed is  full of scrap sheetrock.
HUGE pieces of sheetrock...4.5x12 feet!
Our Jotul is protected from the massive amounts of dust that will soon be coating the inside of our house.
The guys on stilts amaze me. And the speed at which they're putting up the sheetrock is equally amazing. The upstairs was done by 4:30 and the downstairs was at least halfway there. Wow!
Side note...our porch ceilings are up! Beadboard will be painted Atmospheric blue. I love the extra trim around the ceiling--it became necessary when the boards weren't quite long enough to fit. The trim is hiding the seam on one side and is a decorative touch on the other. Nice work, guys!
The porch floors won't be installed until after the house's exterior is painted. So hang on for that!
