We've got a roof!
Dare I say it again...a lot has happened since my last entry! First came the shear walls...these are structural walls made of 2 by 4s and OSB to give them more strength.
Then came all of the trusses and then some of the roof sheathing...but that makes it sound so simple...watch how it goes up in pictures...
I call this one 'Man and Machine...They are one'. I'm not sure that he planned it this way ...notice, he even wore matching clothing...but you can tell by the look on his face...he's ready for the task at hand!
Let's begin...up goes a truss...the first of many!
This looks like a giant lego set...
And the men, they're as good at balancing as my grand-daughters on the balance beam, and they do it in boots!
And they work fast!
The next two remind me of the saying 'Now you see it...now you don't' but in reverse... The garage...
The garage with roof...
The first sheath goes up...and then they had to stop for the day...it was a little scary up there with the wind blowing...and I don't blame them one little bit.
But they were hard at it the next day ...
Notice anything different? Besides the fact that half the roof is finished...?
That's right! The straw has arrived! 150 bales are now sitting inside the garage...
And now...for our comercial break...
