| Robin and I wrestle with the 2-man auger. I think her back muscles are still recovering. |
 |
| Two 3+ foot "bugs bunny" holes made by the auger. |
 |
| First of MANY trips to the hardware store. This precarious load included two 16 foot tall 4x4 posts. |
 |
| Brian spent the whole day with me getting the support posts and beams square, cemented, and bolted to one another. |
 |
| End of first real day of construction. Structure square and ready for decking. |
 |
| Installing decking. |
 |
| Trap door complete |
 |
| Robin helping me with the small suspended deck. |
 |
| ANOTHER trip to the hardware store. During one of these the cashier actually welcomed me by name. That can't be a good sign. |
 |
| Tres helping me frame out the walls on the ground. |
 |
| Once we lifted all walls onto the platform we discovered they fit together perfectly. He and I were both pretty surprised. |
 |
| Tres helping with wall boards as robin grinds the tips off of screw points which protruded through the trap door. |
 |
| Robin continuing to help with wall boards the next day. |
 |
| End of construction day four. Still not complete, but getting close! Considering a tin roof... |
 | |
| Shutters & walls complete (still need a roof) |
