Today clean up work around the outside as well as work to prepare for jacking the barn on the inside continues. The last cememt for the fall was poured yesterday and we see the results here today.

| Barn from the south looking north |
The sky is bright blue and the gray barn stands out well in front. The three piers are in place. They need to cure, but are in place doing their job of holding the wall in place. Notice (I really didn't at first) but the barn's second floor with all those openings are now closed in. It looks much better!

| Timber in place to jack second floor. |
If you look back to yesterday's post, the vertical jacking timber is pinned to the second floor timber that was mentioned. If you look closely behind the ladder, the supporting timber that needs to be moved over after the top is lifted. There are more top floor vertical timbers that need this jacking preperation done to them before the very slow task of lifting the roof of the barn can begin. But still in all, the project is moving along and from out front 'you would never know.' And that's just fine with us.
