DAY ONE ON THE JOB SITE

Today we started work at our job site.  We were all so excited to get going.  We started out later than we had originally planned because our bus driver needed to get some sleep.  Actually I think we all needed the sleep since it was such a rough ride down.
It is difficult accessing our job site and the bus can not go down the road where we are working because it is only one lane and there is no place to turn the bus around.  Eagle Ranch loaned us their van because we have to park the bus about 1/4 of a mile away and shuttle all our tools and all of us to the actual job site.  Mick, our guide also has a pick up truck so we had 2 shuttle of tools and kids going this morning.  It was a bit hectic getting atrted today but now we have the hang of it so tomorrow should go smoother.
When we got to the site, the floor deck had been done so we hit the ground running on the walls and rafters for the roof.

We were able to get the walls up with all the openings for doors and windows and we got the rafters built for the roof.  Building headers for doors and windows is not easy!  We love raising the walls!  It feels so good to raise a wall and hammer it in place. It was a very good day as we accomplished all we had set out to accomplish for day one.
Tomorrow we hope to put the windows in, get all the OSB on the walls, and put the Tyvek on the walls. We would also like to get the roof on tomorrow if we can.
Now we will just chill out for a while, and maybe build another bonfire before heading to bed.
we hope to finish a little early tomorrow so we can hit the 'Blue Hole" for a quick swim on our way back after work.  It is alos our night on the town tomorrow so the posting may be kind of late tomorrow night.
