The ridge beam is in

Saturday was supposed to be a dull day so we decided to move our little tractor up to the site so we could work on improving the driveway surface before the hot sun of summer baked it hard like concrete (like it's ever going to be hot and sunny here ever again!). It took about 3 hours to drive the tractor on the back roads all the way from our current home in Knutsford to the new place in Barnhartvale. We did have one little stretch of Hwy 5A to do - about 5 km of very steep, downhill, winding curves to get us down to Campbell Creek Road. It was an interesting but uneventful trip with everyone I passed, smiling and waving like we were best friends!
As I drove up the last few hundred metres of our driveway, I could see the house in the distance. The big ridge beams were in! And most of the deck framing was complete. The place looked really cool!
I am going up again today (Sunday) to work on the driveway so may have some more pictures after that.
