Bringing Down the Rafters

Mr Mossi was just on the phone with an excavator.

Wow.

Now comes the part where we start forkin' out the green stuff.

I'm not good at that; it makes me anxious.

Anyway...

the rafters are officially down as of about 8:00 and removed from inside by about 8:30.
All that remains of the roof structure are the joists and the gable ends.
It won't be long till those are down too.

Dean got started on it late Saturday. By quitting time it was a little more than half-way done.

He'd intended on starting earlier, but ended up having to repair the air conditioning in the ol' truck and seeing to various other little fires that needed extinguishing.
He and our indentured helper got right on the rest of it after work today. 

Here are a few photos that may seem rather blah to you, but to us it's pretty exciting.
We're movin' right along.
