Windows and Doors, oh my!

No time has been wasted after the framing was substantially complete - the windows and doors are nearly done (even with our "hmm, those windows seem too low; and let's move these windows around").

The front view

Right side view (my office and the stairs)

Rear view
Porch on the right, dining nook directly in front of you, master bedroom above,
Heather's office and the guest bedroom in the loft

Back right
mudroom exterior door on the far left, kitchen front and center, dining nook between kitchen and porch
you can also see the steps (with lots of lighting) down to the basement from what will hopefully be the back patio

Shingles, exterior trim and siding come next, I believe, but I think we're moving back into a phase where there will not be a lot of visible progress, at least from the exterior.  It is my understanding that wiring, plumbing, insulation, etc. will be up next.  Fun stuff.

By the way, any input regarding whole-house generators hooked up to the natural gas line would be welcome - good/bad experiences, brands, maintenance, etc.
