Our building grows!



At noon today Peter and I went over to see the building. The fellows weren't there so we had a chance to poke around inside the building and take some pictures. Now that most of the main floor walls are sheathed, I can get a better feel for the size of the building. Peter took a picture standing at the south wall and I stood at the north wall. It sure looks a long way from one end to the other!

The fellows also have the steel posts in place to hold up the beams that are ready to be installed. Each day there is something new to check out! We might see a bit of a slow down for a few days while waiting for the floor and roof trusses to arrive.

In this picture of the exterior you can see a row of small openings near the top which the brackets will be lined up with and a "tail" on the top of the brackets inserted into. Wow! That is a long way up!



It's so much fun watching the building grow!
