The house as it stood on Thursday morning. The ridge-beam is mounted and ready for rafters.

| Here are the rafters. | 
We started out by attaching the rafters that were above the sleeping loft.
We then began the tedious task of mounting the ones in the center of the house.
|  | 
| Gable-end rafters | 
|  
 I stood on the silver ladder and held the rafter in place while Ben attached the rafter end to the house frame. He then attached the metal plate to the ridge-beam and then we nailed 2 hurricane ties per rafter to the frame. Needless to say we shifted ladders around ALOT.

| More Corolla hauling. | 
|  | 
| We did haul this thing back over the house before we left on Sunday. | 
|  | 
| We got most of the sheathing on. The rest will be placed this upcoming weekend. | 
|  | 
| This was my prized shot for the weekend. |
