Many Hands Make Light Work


The incredible thing to us about this last weekend was that it was Father's Day weekend, and yet we had the largest crew ever show up from Utah to help with the house, and all of them really knew what they were doing. After our the rip 'n tear on the garage and some major clean-up by the scouts, Wade and Davin got busy on some shiny new walls for the garage. Ceiling height in the garage before the tear-down? A very jacked-up Camaro unfriendly (yes, there is one in the neighborhood) 7 ft. Ceiling height after all the new walls and trusses? A Christmas-storage friendly 12 feet!
Before any walls could go up, we had to do everything possible to firm up the foundation walls and get them ready to bear the load of the new trusses, so Brent and Kyle took on the dirty job of filling all the foundation blocks with cement and setting J-hook bolts in them that we could secure the new walls to.
