New Driveway and Polebarn

A chilly here this morning .... was about 4° when I walked out to start the tractor and warm it up. At least it's not Denver ..... I heard they hit -45° last night.

The B2910 has a little problem with the loader valve freezing when it gets cold. I'm using a set of 500w floods to warm it up a bit.

Kinda wish you would have taken a picture of the Skid-steer when he had your whole load of 6 X 6s and he started down the icy access road. I thought is was kinda neat when it started sliding and the rear wheels came up off the ground. Pucker Power!

Yeah, it was awesome. You shoulda seen 'em bring the trusses in. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

These guys are wildmen ...... meaning that they are very good at what they do for the most part, and really work their butts off. I've been trying to help them out wherever I can (but mostly just trying to stay out of their way) - unfortunately, at probably twice their average age, I've been humpin' a bit to keep up with them and my picture taking has been a little lax.

Today will probably be different though ..... my legs and knees need a little rest. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

This is where things are at about noon on Day 2. Skirtboard up and girts up all the way around and two of the overhead door headers up.
