August 21 Framing at last!

We weren't sure if we'd ever get to this point, but the framers arrived this morning shortly after 8:00 and got to work.
 One of the men measuring up the cribbing for the walls.

 Sorting the lumber and getting ready.

 Shortly after noon we had our first wall in place. This is the wall facing the house.

 Back side of the first wall.

 They worked till 7:30in the evening. All 4 walls were completed except for the opening on the right where the "tall wall" will be. We're waiting on 20 foot studs which will be delivered on Thursday to build that section after which the second floor joists will go on.

Another view from the alley. When it's done. the garage will actually be taller than the house.
