The building

Okay.....it's been a couple of days since I've posted.....but I've been busy!

I'm building a storage building in the back yard! Woo-hoo!

For those who don't know me, I'm never happier than when I'm in the middle of a building project! This time, it's a small one; 8'x8'. Before this, I've built an 8x16 and a 10x16. It never seems to change. When I get to the ceiling joists and rafters, I always get stuck.....well, for a minute or two anyway!

I'm using a different method for the foundation this time, too. MDB and I went to a wedding a couple of weeks ago and they had a barn in their back yard (their BY was positively CAVERNOUS!!!!!) that was apparently founded on pilings in concrete. I thought....."Hmmmm....what a concept! I'll never have to worry about the ground shifting that way...." so that's how the foundation on this one went; pilings in concrete!

Okay....it was a NIGHTMARE laying it out, but once the holes were dug and the pilings laid out, it was a piece of cake! Now, the foundation is assembled, the wall have been framed, and the ceiling joists and rafters have been laid out!

It's just a matter of time!
