Building Progress 11

The building is almost complete. Today they guys poured the large 20' X 80' pad that is in front of the hangar door (apron area). They still have to install the garage doors and pour the sidewalk that will allow me to go around the building. I decided the sidewalk would be a good idea so that I can check to make sure the building stays in good shape and can catch problems early rather than waiting for the problem to show itself in the building (through the walls). Here are 2 pictures I took today of the progress to date.





My brother Bob has once again been convinced to help me with a building project. He is going to frame in the apartment for me. On September 11, 2001 Bob was in Pittsburgh "helping me" rebuild my front porch (I watched and he worked). He has a long history of helping me with "my" projects. So far he and my dad have built me a garage, a front porch, a rear deck or two, and now framing in a complete apartment. Boy do I owe them big time!!
