All of a sudden, things are moving fast. Work is beginning on the new barn right on schedule. They dropped off a stack of trusses Monday, some doors and windows Tuesday, a BIG stack of lumber yesterday.
This morning, I woke up to the sound of a diesel idling in my driveway. It was the construction crew, waiting for it to get light enough for them to start work.
The sun hadn't cleared the trees yet when they started laying out the foundation.
By 8:00 AM they were ready to start boring holes for the poles.
It started to rain about 1:00, so they knocked off for the day. They say they'll be setting the trusses and roofing on tomorrow, weather permitting, and filling the post holes with concrete on Monday. It should be substantially finished by the end of next week, except for the floor. Final concrete is scheduled for 10 days out.
