Did you put piers in under where your 6x6 post are located?

Sure did. 18 inch piers under the slab.

Got the rafters up. Should sheet and shingle the roof by the end of the week.

You will be working in there on projects before you know it. How much head room on the top floor center, 8-9'?

7' under the cross braces. Plenty of room for storage and to move around up there. I will eventually insulate and finish up there and maybe set it up as a bunkhouse in the event of grandkids!

Getting the roof dried in is a big step. It's looking good!
