Building the shop-week 3

Saturday turned out to be a terrible day to work on the shop. Despite our best efforts, the winds (which started low but gusted over 30 mph once again) made it impossible to put up sheets and insulation. Walt went home, and Rickey, Randy, and I sat out in the dust all day and worked on the doors. It was a very frustrating and miserable day.








The forecast on Saturday night called for Sunday's wind to be about the same as Saturday's, so we held almost no hope of being able to start the sheeting this weekend. We were pleasantly surprised around 12:30-1:00 when the winds began to slow down at times. We called Walt and got started with the sheeting after 2:00. It went slowly at first--we were slowed by the skylights, but we picked up the pace and worked until dark. We finished 2/3 of the west side of the building.
