I Said Before Things were Moving Slowly

We've had a very few days in January to even attempt to do anything on our future home, but last weekend (the 21st I think) Hal and I spent a couple hours during the 46F day and installed 12 ceiling joists into the T2 garage trusses. It felt good to get something accomplished. But the temps are not up there anymore and looks like February will probably be much too cold to do anymore. But here are 2 photos I took that day. I did the cutting, Hal did the installing. And no, none of these joists are actually screwed in yet, that will be later when things warm up.
putting them up
all done

These were 11' 8 5/8" long 2 by 6's. In case anyone wants to know.


The Christmas 2017 Update Post

As soon as I get a few things done today I will add some photos about Christmas at my home with my little sister, her beau, their dog Lyra, my dogs. and Hal. (hopefully). I will post house build progress separately because it will be a really, really short post.
