Erection of the barn frame

We got a great start on the barn today. We had wind/snow spurts while we flew the roof sections on and way worse wind once we got them nailed/strapped.

Black shirt and red hat....Alexi G at work











Really glad Brady came by and tack welded the post bases to the base plate tops for the concrete piers.
