The anticipated trusses were not delivered today, but we know they have arrived from Oregon and will be delivered to the building site tomorrow.

Still there was worked to be done.

Because of the extreme cold during the winter, every crack needs to be caulked.  Here Arlen is caulking and Joyce is clearing the way of debris.

Electrical outlets being installed.  We met Ron in Miami but he is from Fairbanks and a mapper too.  US MAPS RV.  He leaves his RV in the lower forty eight to use during the winter.

Cutting insulation.

There is a lot to be done to keep the cold north weather out.

Jesse working hard too.  Reinforcement blocks I think.

     We caught these two still working after hours.
