A spill on the ice has slowed me down on getting this post done. Last Monday, I took this picture of the new roof... completed none too soon considering the weather and impending forecasts.
Here is an earlier communication from Wayne on November 29th:
I talked with Rob and Greg the HVAC person. We went over system and agreed on the HVAC System with a some upgrading. Upgrade will add $$$ over the typical system for a home of this size but we wanted some items that were very important to us and will add comfort and make a healthier home.
Upgrades:
15 Seer High Efficiency System
Digital Pro Thermostat w/Outside Air Temperature
Frigidaire ERV ( Fresh Air w/Energy Recovery )
Hepa Filtration w/digital remote control
Steam Humidifier
Electronic Air Cleaner
All metal supply and return air ducts
5 extra exhaust air ducts to ERV
Fresh air will be brought into home constantly and stale air will be exhausted. The fresh air will be filtered preheated or cooled and then distributed throughout home. The bath fans will be eliminated and the heated air from showers will also be pushed through the ERV and distributed back into the system as well in conserving energy and balancing the system.

And, here is a note from Wayne, after their trek to Wenatchee on Sunday (Dec. 10th).
"Oh what fun. A run through the snow. Compact snow & ice from Cle Elm to the Big Y. Even following snow plows for about 15 minutes on Snoqualmie it was a 2 hour 15 minute drive. Not a lot of traffic and steady running that I would take any day over heavy traffic.
Home is looking good. We really like the entry. Roof color is outstanding of course in my opinion. Looking up at the thermal wrap is exciting and we are looking forward to the next trip over next Sunday. Appointment to meet with Rob and electrician at 11:00". -Wayne
Watch for ongoing updates. I think my back is on the mend, albeit a slow process -Carol
