Boxed In

Yeah!  We have the front part of the house all boxed in now!  The attic floor is framed & sheathed.  My Brother-In-Law (Nathan's cousin) is here helping us before the snow flies.  My dad also had a few days, so he's here working again to.  We're SO thankful to have a bit of help.  I've been stressed seeing the frost on the windshield & know that Nathan is going to be on the slick plywood 30 some odd feet off the ground...not cool! 

We do have some safety precautions in place.  The biggest one being that he puts tarps over everything so the frost/ice is settling on the tarp and not actually on the surface he's walking on.  Ok.  That's great.  Let's just get the roof on and not have to go up there in potential bad weather, shall we?

You can do cool things like this with three people!

Nathan and Erik toss the lines down, Dad connected the boards and they were hoisted up to the roof!  See!  Cool things like that can be done with three people!  It's a bit more complicated when you're by yourself!

Almost there!
