Prom 2016

On Saturday 4/16/16 Brandon had his Jr/Sr Prom. We took a few pictures before the festivities. Here are a few pics.

 

Drone Video

Yesterday I did some exploring with the drone, flying around the nearby canyons.

Here is an edited video from one of the flights. (Adjust speaker volume first).

The drone traveled 2.4 miles during this one.

Log Framing

On Thursday I had a crane come to set the logs. I also hired two people to help. It took about 7 1/2 hours to set them all. Everything fit together well (whew!) with just a little adjusting here and there as we went along. It was a beautiful day too. Click on a photo to enlarge it then click the back button to get back to the blog.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The front gable dormer still needs to be framed. I will have some log accents that will not need to be set with a crane. I will also add rafter tails to the interior logs (the ones that don't extend past the wall). Hard to explain why I am doing it this way but I will explain that later when it is in place and there are pictures to show.

 

 

The porch roof unit weighed 3000 pounds according to the crane operator.
