Ready for structural steel . . .

Backfill of soils and gravel is complete on our new shop/office building site.  The weather has been great for work, dry and relatively warm.  We can only hope for warm and dry weather when the structural steel and components show up in late December.

The challenge of winter construction is dealing with the cold for both man and machine.  We’re hopeful to persevere and erect the building in the month of January.  Prayers for warmer than average temps would be appreciated!

Below are a few photos taken in these past few days.
