The roofers are here, and by next week a new barn roof!
It started on Wednesday, December 2, with the prep work shown in the 2 pictures below.
The larger curved section went on one sheet at a time. It was facinating to watch.
By Friday the entire roof was enclosed. They'll be back on Monday for the trim work and final completion.
Thank you so much to Dawson Byler Construction for the fine work and craftmanship. They can be rightfully proud of the integral part they played in conserving this historic old barn. Maybe even prouder of the joy and happiness it brought to this old man, and I'm sure to many others who will enjoy it in future generations.
Before Christmas I plan to put in more pictures of the completed project, and maybe some ideas for the next steps in this renovation. If you'd like to see how this project started, click on this link, "fingers in the dirt" that I wrote back in May. A few changes since then. Feel free to write in the comments or email me if have any ideas or suggestions
Lovely! Thanks for your gift to the future.
