where are they putting that gunner????? picturing your place did that first building/shed coming into your place get the damage you have been talking about???/

[Gunner55]

Yeah, had big pines on it twice in the last 3 seasons. Not much damage the 1st time though as it hit a rafter but weren't so lucky this year that day that DR had the tornado.

did you find someone from the area to build it. seems guys like that are hard to round up!!!!!!1 when we put the new shed up, a classmate of mine and friend of my brothers came up to put the structure up as he's worked through the grand rapids lumber yard before. not sure how they went about finding the electrical and cement guys. but those guys did that stuff as side jobs!!!!!!!think they are in cahoostz together doing that kind of thing!

Over the last few days we probably got somewhere between 5-8 inches. I'll probably get out on the ice next week

[Gunner55]

These guys https://www.northlandbuildings.com/ they advertise in the Manny. The guy we talked to lived in Floodwood, had an office in Superior, & has a place over at Denny's on Winnie. He said they usually have at least 15-20 crews working in 5 states in the upper midwest.

[Gunner55]

There's a couple of stacks of rafters & timber out where the new shed's going to go so the builders were here last week. We talked to 'em Saturday & they said probably today. With the weather, maybe not, we'll see.

[glenn57]

They might charge extra if your there trying to tell them what to do!!

[Gunner55]

  Not my project & the contract was signed last fall. Down payment made then too.

[LPS]

How big of shed Gunner?  Will you still have your cargo box too?  Man cave???   LOL

[Gunner55]

  Something like 42 X 34. The entire basement here is my man cave.

that explains everytime i stop in your brother hollers downstairs!!!!!! and here i thought he didnt like you!!!!!!

[Gunner55]

  He watches a lot of that channel that your wife makes you watch , so I just stay down here.

We had some very light mist that I'm sure was making the roads a bit slick early yday. But 2 pickups came down the driveway ~ 9:45. One had a flatbed trailer with a ASV on it & the other had a smaller toy hauler type trailer behind it. Only 2 guys but they got about 1/2, 7, of the poles set before they headed home, DR, a little before 4:30.

[Gunner55]

It looks like all the posts are in along with some long 2 X 6s tying 'em all together.

[glenn57]

just make sure its big enough so you can find more stuff to put it in!!!!!!!!

thats what seems to be happening to are big shed at the cabin!!!!!!

[Gunner55]

  Well, you probably got it 1/2 full of KATCHUP!!!!!    

[Gunner55]

 Our snow didn't stop 'til almost noon here so the shed crew never made it & I don't blame them. It looks like they have all the posts set, I counted 18 of 'em, so it's probably on to the furring strips next.

[Gunner55]

We had to ask them to move 1 of their pickups when we came home yday & they wanted to know what happened to all our snow? One guy said he's just 10 miles away, down by Little Ball Club Lake, & he had an easy 6". They didn't come out early as it was too cold, but they did get 3 of the 5 rafters up & tied together before they went home.

[glenn57]

Well... That's pretty easy to explain. With ALL  that hot air blowing around that end of Sand lake;
