Carport building day! I met Dann at the lumber yard at 7:15ish with the PLD truck, both were loaded with all the right parts and pieces for the carport structure. We got to the house and Owen, Jason and Ryan met us about 8:30 to unload. By 9am, the plans had been studied, donuts and coffee were onboard and the four posts were put in. I went inside to sand some of the spackle on the trim and came out about 45 minutes later and the beams were in and the rafters/joists were about half done. Roger came by to supervise and help and did the lunch run. By about 12:30pm we were eating subway under the shade of the new structure. A couple more nails, supports, and trims and ta da! We have said all along that as soon as we got our final occupancy permit, we would take it down, but it's kind of nice, so we'll let the the residents of that property make the final decision on that.
