"reindeer paws.. out jumps good ol' Santa Claus..." Well, dear Santa better not be planning on stopping on our roof top... because "we ain't got one!!!" However, the rafters arrived last week, and the guys, got them to the top of the house, and have begun to assemble them!!!One thing I have always known about building, is be flexible, and "everything" is a guess... so, the idea that we would have a "weather tight building" by Christmas was the "guess"... and due to weather (mostly) we now are working on the the "flexible" part, and maybe will have a roof by the New Year. "weather tight" will follow.
I really don't know how the guys do it some days. The wind can really whistle across that field, and then to be two stories up....well, it's more than I care to do!!! The "nice thing" is, when the generator is running (no electricity yet!!!)... the barn is up and running, and the tack room is heated. At lunchtime, the guys come to the tack room to warm up and have a little break from the weather. It's the best that I can offer at the moment!!!
It won't be Santa that gets credit for being the first "up on the housetop"...
it's Eric!!!!
