Roof Appears

The beams are up. We are at the top of the house with the placement of the 28' beam in the master bedroom. Thank goodness the skyfork reached the peak, I dont think I could have lifted that beam standing on scaffolding 25ft. in the air. But, we did exactly that on the 22 ft. beam in the awesome room. In two days we have placed both of the big beams with 2 people and 1 skyfork, and we are closing in on finishing out all of the rafters. The goal for this week is to have as much of the roof on as is possible, that is if the other crew does'nt show up. If they do, we want the roof decked, tar-papered, and the 1x4 pearlings on. And , the deck started on at least. I am starting to be more productive and it shows, the last 2 days  we have really got things done. We are also hitting a differant swimming hole lately, the ponca bridge. Not my favorite, but Matt has been hanging with Charles and his grandsons havin a big time.
