I had lots of help on the addition today.  Some of my relatives showed up with both corded and cordless power tools ready for action!  They were determined that the roof must go on.  However, much like myself, they spent quite some time scratching their heads trying to figure out my plan.  Since I had forgotten which plan (A,B,C..) I was up to, we had to wing it.

There was much banging, sawing, and nailing.  The ruckus forced “Honey Bunches” and “Scout the Wonderdog” outside to make sure we weren’t damaging the existing cabin.  Satisfied the walls were not going to fall down, they headed out for a walk.  With all the commotion going on, Scout pulled poor Honey Bunches around the place in a hurry to get back to see the flurry of activity.

I have to say that building a roof with 4 people is faster than one!  We didn’t get the roof done but I am happy for the extra progress.  The eaves and soffit work would have kept me busy for a couple days.  A big thanks to Greg, Starsky, Hayden, and Vance.

Well after dark, I made it back in the house.  Honey Bunches was writing in her Journal.  Scout was reading a magazine.  I could only think of two things.  First, family is important and nice to have.  Second, some magazine owes me a subscription for posting this cool picture!
