Ok I'll try and post some of these in smaller batches.
Warning.. Some of these are not in focus, not sure if adult beverage will help. Some were so bad I won't even post them.

Lets start with why I wanted the barn. I have a small 2 1/2 car garage.
Let take a look shall we?

As stated earlier, the guy decided to back up my 500' driveway.

The crew arrived almost an hour before the materials.
Seemed like a good bunch of guys.. The have to drive a little over an hour each way every day to get out to my place.

Here are the last photos of the day..
They got most of the posts in and were starting to put top joist on.. They are using glue-lam for these top joists and they seem to be PRETTY heavy. So I'm guessing that's why they decided to call it a day. Also they included the wrong posts for the shed roof. They said they will bring the correct ones tomorrow.

DAY TWO.

Looks like they will put in about 6 hours a day.. They get there just before nine am and leave around three. But they do have over an hour to drive each way. The foreman told me they wont be done until Monday or later.

Ok here are some photos of the first truss going up.

Middle and end of Day Two..
I switched cameras to my SLR so I could hold it more steady. (steadier?)
