Another Productive Weekend!

The weekend starts out with Thursday and Friday's project of

framing the garage walls, setting them and
then sheeting the first row....

sorry about the quality of the first few photos,
 I only had my phone

available while the cameras were charging!

My brother-in-law Mike Blaschko made his

debut this weekend helping us, he hopes

to learn a lot so he can be a carpenter someday

in case his day job doesn't work out!!

And my dad Dave got roped into spending the weekend with us,

he's got some pretty natural talent and cat like reflexes!

Time out!

We had to take a break because the first load of

rafters for the roof arrived!

Ok boys--back to work! Need to finish the garage so

we have a place to set these rafters this weekend!

Now here's a trooper--well actually a sheriff's deputy

but in our eyes a trooper because he worked all weekend

and found time to help us in the hours between....

Thanks Jim Whiteis!!!

This is dad's carpenter shirt, it says

I DO MY BIT...

He lived up to it; he did WAY more than just a bit!

Tom and Mariane wanted to be part of the fun too!!

Next project=roof!! Stay tuned for these photos

and some photos of Sam Gramling who helped us

frame garage walls on Thursday evening;

sorry too many cameras, not enough memory space!
