David got up just after 4 this morning and was up working on our house by 5 this morning! By the time I was able to bring Elijah up there, he already had quite a bit done. One of the staff couples made us burgers for lunch so we were able to take a quick lunch and get right to work. I was able to help David all afternoon, thanks to a family who offered to watch Elijah for us! Most of the day was quite chilly with a little rain here and there. Hopefully the sun will come out for the rest of the week. All in all, we are quite happy with the outcome of day 1.
So, what was accomplished today?
*Holes were dug and main posts were put in
*Rafters were duct taped across the top
*We have a roof! The plastic was spread across and stapled to the cedar poles on the ends.
David had all these poles in by the time we got there

Me cutting a pole!
