Working Hard Before the Rains Come Again

Hi All,
One of my criteria for where to settle down was a place where it rained. I didn't want to deal with little or no water or frequent droughts. I think we are over achieving on that scale. So we have to make hay while the sun shines. Or at least doesn't rain.

Last Thursday we got a delivery of siding by 18 wheeler. On his way out he got stuck in the mud. Two tractors, a four wheeler and 2.5 hours later he was on his way.

More trusses going up

At the end of the day, only four more trusses to go

That's it for now. Hopefully we'll get the rest of the trusses up before the rain comes again tomorrow. If we make it past 8:00 before we're in bed, it'll be a miracle.

We have walls!

Hi all,
We have made some progress since my last post. I'm sure all will be happy this post will be mostly pictures. All I'll say is "please stop raining". There has been almost no progress this week with rain and freezing temperatures.

We have had a few days of nice weather

Trusses were delivered last Friday

That's it for now. Take care.
