Hope Aaron is feeling good tomorrow. I really wanted to get this done
before hot weather, but HoneyDew's sod trumped this hand...........

More photos as they develop, no pun intended.

Bubba just called. Sick again, going to the doctor, suspects strep.
Damn.

Here's a link to pictures that show a little of my side of this planet.

That's wild, getting around local laws, temporary structure?

Soon those days will be over. Like the wife pointed out the other day
that the ceiling is starting to crack at the peek, they made me use
'certified' trusses. Just knew I should have beefed them up.

Having a bit of trouble seeing the whole plan. There will be lots of
storage room on the top of the containers? How many trusses? Not like
ya have a snow load.

Bald eagle ! Is it lost? Never mind, I'm still in awe when I see Sea
Gulls in Nevada, Utah, & up here. I just assumed they had to have salt
water. Like whole parking lots full of them in L. V. NV..?

Last Saturday I went down to the river thinking few people would be
camping when it is so hot (for the north), but it was packed. Except
one bug haven site, so I'm walking down the path close to the water
and see a fish skull. A couple more steps and I'm maybe 5 feet from
the water and I hear the tree above me creek and a huge bald eagle
directly zenith is raising its wings for the first (stroke?) and it
was completely silent until the first push of its wings which where
maybe a foot further on each side of the length of my out stretched
arms. I watched it fly away and I looked down for my next step and the
grass was all white from bird ****. Gave me that freaky feeling like
the Predator movie with Arney.

I am in an agricultural zoning, so anything is called "stock shade" by the
owner. The trusses will be open up to the sheets covering, space above
intended to take sun load off containers, not for storage, although there
may be a little up there. Roofs of containers are weak, and not a lot of
room.

The eagle just comes here in the dead of winter, and leaves a month before
the first hint of spring.

Your encounter down on the river was uncommon. We used to go to Nelson, and
Willow Beach a lot back in the days before mankind ruined them both.

Nine trusses in 40' spaced 5' apart, chicken boards 5' O/C.

Gotta go get a roll of wire. Always run out at the worst times.
