D-Day

Delivery Day finally came as our exterior wall panels and roof trusses were delivered on Saturday. It was a wild day to say the least! We got a pretty bad snowstorm on Friday and the snow was supposed to stop around midnight, but it actually kept snowing all day on Saturday. So early Saturday morning my father-in-law and I went out to plow, sand, and snowblow. Fortunately, the delivery drivers braved the weather and made it up our driveway successfully.

The work went really well, thanks to the crane, crane operator, and the help of a couple friends (Joel and Micah). We were able to get all the walls and trusses up and the roof is half covered with plywood. As you can see from the pictures, we got a lot accomplished in one day. Sorry I didn't get any pictures of when the trucks came loaded or when the walls were going up. I was sort of busy at the time. Anyway, it's really exciting to see the full shape of the house and to be able to stand in each room now.
