May's Pole





This weekend Danielle visited and did some great work in the garden. We also cleaned up the work site and removed the big pile of scrap lumber that was blocking the access for the next big event... erecting the centre pole.

For this, we got Steve and his crane truck to help out.  Steve lifted the pole and neatly dropped it into place between the beams. While Mike took care of securing the pole in place above, my job was guiding the bottom pin into the hole he had drilled in the floor to receive it. Everything went smoothly and in minutes the operation was completed.

With the pole in place we are now set to begin installing the floor for the second story. David, our architect friend came over after lunch for a consultation on construction details, so Mike and I now have a green light for the next phase... the second floor.
