The Rafters are Going Up

The rafters are going up fairly easy. We are doing it like we were taught in the class and what do you know it works. Our house will have 13 sets of rafters and last night we put up the sixth set. Once they are all up then we have to get them all level and then they will be pinned into place with rebar.

After the rafters are leveled and secured, we will lay tongue and groove on top of them. We don't have our T & G because we are still negotiating the price. After the T & G, we will build boxes on top to fill with insulation. We have decided to use architectural composite shingles for the roof. We hope to be finished with the roof by September. God willing!

There was a rainbow yesterday. It reminded me that God is in control of all things and it also reminded me of his long suffering and mercy. There was actually a double rainbow. If you look closely at the upper right corner you will see the second rainbow.
