Still framing

 Framing the upstairs :

And Brad and his family came to visit.

 

 

 

The big trapezoid windows for the living room getting framed in

Our 11 year old Granddaughter Andrea out helping grandpa supervise the road crew working in front of our driveway

Grandkids almost always make Nancy smile

Andrea was put to work gathering all the nails and screws laying around. Grandpa insists on a clean and safe work site

Some of the grading got completed around the perimeter. The hillside below the house will make for some good sledding!
 

The Alder plants in Alaska grow like weeds. Keeping a path to the power meter takes a little work every week

Framing on the garage and the shop started today

Placing the wall with the 12 foot door

Putting in the beam that supports most of the roof trusses for the shop

Tilting up the 14 foot walls. They get built laying flat on the ground, then put into place and secured

Got a little rain this afternoon, but everybody works right through it
