Finally, after several added weeks the framing begins:
We frame exterior walls in 2X4 in SoCal. Is it code up there to do minimum 2X6?
I'll confirm with my contractor friends, but I think that is correct. Suspect our R Factor for insulation is higher as well though we are trying to keep the heat in instead of the heat out.

a couple for ole times sake?
To bridge the gap here is a pot of "Suicide Stew" from when I lived in Japan decades ago. Each person who came to the party brought something to add and as I recall the result was questionable. Sort of a one pot potluck.
@1northcoin Thanks for the posts. The stew looks good especially today, mid 20s Fahrenheit. The bakery item looks good, what's the story with it. The high faluten sushi not so much. I like my sushi to be beef and medium rare. 😋😋
Ya ditto. He’s celebrating his 20th birthday. Likes the couch arms🙀🐈 As you can see enjoys sharpening his claws 🤨. The den gets a lot of use and he’s figured out how to remove the couch cover. 😂
That was the Sylmar earthquake 6.5/6.6 I was 6 years old I remember driving around looking at all the damage with my parents or was that the northridge one?
