Heavy Tursses

Frank Gomez and his men installed many of the trusses by noon today. The trusses didn't look that big and heavy until I watched one of the men struggle to lift one up onto the scaffolding. Then he had to lift it up over his head to the man on top of the framing. Watching them work showed me just how heavy and big they really are.
I was told the men will next work on the back porch framing and the front porch support beams. Their work schedule may change depending on the forecast for rain tomorrow and through the weekend.
