Time to dig the plumbing lines now that we have a roof over our heads, and of course it broke,,,so there goes another weekend we cant work on the house

Time for the Roof

Had to get a line all the way around 8 ft mark, or there about, to set the roof trusses on, then set the trusses

Year is Up





Now we figure out where exactly we want the house, on weekends, weekends only,,we start digging the wholes for the posts,,,,,3ft down,,,concrete surrounding every pole,,,,can you feel my legs,,,they are getting tired,,,,

Then it Settles for a Year


The Ground has to settle for a year,,,,,,lets just sit around and wait,,lol
