The Garage: Part 5

Lifts, skid steers, and cranes - Oh My!

What a productive day with the garage. The trusses are UP!! All I can say is we have some great friends. Karl brought the lift while Brent brought his crane and skid steer. Karl's Dad showed up as well as Brent's hired man, Brian (remember he's the one catching the big air on the motorcycle).
The first truss is on it's way up. Brent just drove his truck right into the garage to operate the crane. Pretty smooth.
Lift, who needs a lift? Not Karl.
Russ, Brent, and Brian watching Karl and Bob work on the second to last truss. Almost there boys. Way to go!

"Is it dinner time yet?" "Good grief, can we at least get a coffee break?"

GREAT JOB EVERYONE! WE APPRECIATE IT MORE THAN YOU KNOW!

Looking like a real Country Palace! Where the garage is greater than the house! Will be a great day when the last of it is finished. Is it going to have aluminum roof? Great post!

Wow, I can't even get my neighbors to shovel my twenty feet of sidewalk when I am out of town when it snows. Awesome to have such great neighbors and friends. Won't be long before the job is complete.
