Trey and his dad set 3 walls and sheeted one today. Probably could have made a bit more head way if we did not have to recover the skid steer. Sorry I was too busy to get pics of the recovery, but what had happened was is it slid sideways and dropped the left side tires off next to the foundation. We had to be a bit creative as to not knock the wall down. So using my F350 as an anchor, Trey used his 2500 Suburban to tug it up and out of the trench with out tearing down the wall.
For now they are leaving the front walls down. It should make setting the trusses a little easier. Which by the way should be delivered Monday. Depending on the weather tonight, they may be back in the morning to finish sheeting. Also my contractor is a full time firefighter with the city, so he gets 2 days to work on projects, then 1 day for the city. That has been working pretty well with the weather usually falling on his days at the fire dept.
