Partial Roof

Chuck and I had a great day putting up 60% of the southern roof in 40 mph gusts. This was after Mike, Eric, and Bob put up 75% of the northern roof the previous day. No pictures of that crew unfortunately. Thanks everyone! Could not have done this without you!






Nothing like a sunset on some heavy equipment, a van, and a garage

The foundation should be getting poured for the house soon.

Roofless Garage


The photographer was crooked in the second picture, not the structure. Eric C. helped put on the sheathing on the gable ends. Thanks Eric.
