Bathroom Remodel Pt2

We are down to plywood and drywall.  After knocking out the tile and pulling the old hardware we noticed we have about 3 feet of empty space behind the shower.  We have taken the wall out and in deed there is dead space of about 3 feet.  We have decided to extend the shower. 

Now plywood is what we can see when looking up when we should be seeing the floor joists.  We have a header above the shower.  Header (as in it looks like one but not sure it actually is one) that we are debating on knocking down to make the shower taller. 

After going to Lowes, Menards, and Home Depot repeatedly to look for tiles and not finding anything thats just right we decided to go to some tile stores.  We saw many horribly plain tiles and then ran across the one we will most certainly be using.  The tile is a 12x24 blue gray randomly stripped tile.  Once we have the order I will post pictures as it is hard to explain. 

For now we are working on cutting out the remaining wood in the dead space and then we will need to re plumb and hang the Duroc.  Its a work in progress but its been fun with the demo so far.
