Day 93 - Rough Framing Coming Along

It's day 93 and John and I returned from vacation to a beautiful site! On Day 89 (Thursday) the crew came back to finish the rough framing and raise the garage walls. Days 89 through 93 the crew set the trusses and installed the overhangs.

Day 72 - Trusses Delivered

It's day 72 and our trusses were delivered today from Ohio. The carpentry crew should be back to the site by Friday to get back to work -- they will start by setting the garage walls then begin setting the trusses and roof sheathing eventually. Our windows should be delivered early next week. Busy busy ; )



One of many different trusses...

Over the weekend I organized our trash pile. I don't know what I am going to do with all of this extra wood scraps but I don't want anything to go to waste!


The trash is mainly tamale wrappers and water bottles LOL. Let's just say that our carpentry crew had a fiesta at the lot one night...
