I bet you were in good shape. In the first pic I posted the guy is standing on the wheelbarrow and shoveling the stuff up to the upper tier of the scaffolding. He must have have done it 10-15 times in a row really fast.

Looking back on the thread, I see no duct work or vents in the drywall for heat or air. No climate control?

Definitely need A/C here, too! It's hot all over!!!

It's looking great Andrea. I'm sure there's more than one (me) rockhound or auto-collector (not me) drooling over your building.

You're nearing the finish line. That thing is as big as a ship...when it's completed are ya'll going to christen it with a bottle of ginger-ale?

Thanks Ed....we are looking forward to it being finished. I think my husband will christen his part with Bud light and I will christen my part with ice coffee.

I have been having problems with photobucket. I cannot upload photos to it from my phone or computer anymore...every upload fails. I'm learning to use flickr but it seems like you can't upload from the phone only computer. Anyway, here is the latest. The garage is painted and the garage door guys are here now installing the door. YEAH!! Getting so close.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
