Don, I know you are from Michigan, and I hate to mention it, but you put the walls on upside down.

The repairs look great, nice roof, and Frank, that's a little known technique we all use UP here in Michigan....it makes the water drip right off down on Ohio...

The guys seem to get a kick out of doing that

You're making good progress there, it looks great!

Since you're doing so well on time, wouldn't there be enough time to turn that wall over like it belongs? All you need is a skyhook for the roof and a wall spreader, plus a couple of strong guys...

Serious question Don ... How is the roof made over the bay window? It does not seem like a "Dormer" type roof that goes into the main pitch of the roof ... Or is the angle of the photo messin' with my good eye :?:

Looks good ...

Keep up the good work ... );b( ......

Bob,
The original roof has two different pitches to it so looking at that view is confusing. I will post more pictures later showing the siding work. One end view should make it clearer. I made a decision Monday to replace the window on the right with one that is 5 foot tall and the small window in the stone work. The one on the right is a replacement window that is off 1 inch in 7 feet. I don't want to show case everyones hard work with crooked window. The small window in the stone replaced the original front door. I put that in years ago and can't remember why I made it shorter. I think this will be the last time I upgrade this house so here we go.

Sorry I must have missed the thread where you got damaged in that twister. Glad to hear though that you're in the mend.
