<\/a><\/p>\nA short while later, we had one 36′ wall ready to be lifted into place.<\/p>\n
The remainder of the week was much the same.\u00a0 Build a wall, lift it into place.\u00a0 Build the next wall, lift that one into place.\u00a0 By the end of the week, we had all four walls up!\u00a0 Thanks to Pat, Gene, Carl, Charlotte, Dave, Devin for all the help with the walls!<\/p>\n Shortly after starting the first wall on Monday, we were told that our trusses would be completed on Wednesday and most likely delivered on Thursday.\u00a0 We scheduled a crane and started lining up helpers for the following Sunday.\u00a0 On Thursday morning we received a call from the lumber company letting us know that the truss company had just informed them they wouldn’t have the trusses done until the following Tuesday.\u00a0 This would be a major setback since we had already planned to have the crane here and started lining up a crew for Sunday.\u00a0 After a few frantic phone calls and emails, we were finally told that the truss company would make sure to have them done by the end of the day on Friday.\u00a0 Things were back on track.\u00a0 Friday morning rolled around and a truck carrying the trusses rolled in the driveway.<\/p>\n We put the finishing touches on the walls, and got everything lined up for Sunday.<\/p>\n First thing Sunday morning, our helpers started showing up, followed by the crane.\u00a0 After a brief meeting to make sure everyone was on the same page and knew what their job was for the day, the crane hooked onto the first truss and lifted it into place.<\/p>\n The first few trusses went up as planned, and everything seemed to be off to a good start.\u00a0 That’s when the snow started, and not just any snow, a wet, heavy, messy snow.\u00a0 While the weather sucked, nobody complained and we plowed forward.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
