| before I realized I was too close for the long lens on my camera, they had lifted and were placing the first truss |
 |
| the back truss got placed first |
 |
| or not |
 |
| why are they bringing it back? |
 |
| something isn't right |
 |
| Brad walking through the barn to fill me in |
 |
| the reach to the back was a little short |
 |
| the crane is now parked inside the barn |
 |
| perspective really changes the appearance of the truss |
 |
| resetting the first truss |
 |
| view from behind the barn makes the truss looks huge |
 |
| observance day 33/365 ~ photo challenge the fearless builders climbed up the barn like it was a jungle gym |
 |
| the crane was moved back out of the barn to pick up the second truss |
 |
| flying trusses |
 |
| setting truss two |
 |
| the crane holds the trusses in place until the builders secure it |
 |
| the builders use a lift to climb onto the rest of the trusses |
 |
| all trusses are set by the end of the day |

So exciting! It's fun to watch the progress.
Great pictures! It's fun to watch it going up. They've got a lot of work done in a short time. I can't believe how they're climbing around it like that. Keep taking pictures!
Brave monkeys! You wouldn't catch me climbing up there. Fun to watch it go up, and SO fast! It looks big - what are the dimensions?
Thanks for sharing the fun! Lorie, our barn is 60W X 80L (it's actually 88L if you count the 8ft front overhang)
Ours is tiny compared to yours...36x48 - but it works.
Absolutely, whatever works. I had to ask Brad to remind me what size our barn was. I get asked all the time what square footage our house will be. Who cares, I don't. I know sizes help with visuals (for some of us - ha ha!) but all I care about is being together.
