More rain

The plan was to start on the roof yesterday, because of the monsoonnal rains we had to cut it to a half a day and concentrate on the deck.

The chain saw proved to be much faster than two passes with the circular saw and one with the sawzall.  We borrowed Keith's and Eric and I made some time.
Bonnie started laying on the deck today.  She tackled the scribe work around the boulder in the house so this was simple stuff for her.

30% chance of rain tonight so after the rafters went up, Todd spent some time putting up some tarps.  Fingers crossed, hopefully we won't need them.
Today Justin B. stopped by to lend a hand. He's a friend from school that teaches in the math/science department and also an engineer by trade.  It'll be good the have structural engineer on site tomorrow,  we'll be framing the dormer in the master bedroom.
