Really coming together !

We headed up to Pelham for a 'short' day of work today.  Elizabeth was tied up in the morning at the "Y" doing a group fitness spin class so when she finished up we decided to pack "light" and take only the chainsaws and drill gear with us (no dogs to distract with walks and such) and aim to install the wood shed roof supports.  Last week we picked a nice straight 25 foot tall, ~16 year old Virginia pine tree with a diameter of about 5" from our nearby woodlot and dragged it with the MF 240 to our homestead to use as the rear roof header on the wood shed.  For the front we had a nice straight log from last year's road clearing already peeled and ready to go.

Even more exciting for us was that Moon Creek Construction Co got the metal roofing on the barn and the south attic window installed during the week.  





Here is some of the handiwork completed on the wood shed.  It has character to say the least.  Our plan is to tie the red barn/shop theme somehow into the wood shed...ideas ?
