Major setback for the addition

Hi everyone, I'm having a setback on completing the cabin addition. Last Thursday, I had a doctors appt. at 2:30 pm. I didn't get back home until around 4:20 and it was getting dark. I had about 4" of snow on the shop which is fine so, I decided to clear the snow Friday morning. Turns out it decided to rain all night and Friday morning, I woke up to this.

You can imagine how I must have felt. But, I kept calm because, it is what it is and my main concern was to fix the situation. I called my friend Matt and he came over Saturday morning and we figured a way to fix it. We ended up clearing most of the things out of the shop and starting bending the poles back. At the split pieces, we bent them back and put large hose clamps around them. Then I decided to start studding it in.

This s the result of our getting it back to the way it was but, only better.

It took Matt and I  4 hrs. to get this done. No way I could have done this by myself. Matt is a very good friend. As soon as the other side is finished, Matt will finish my addition and I will work on putting walls up on the shop. I should have done this a long time ago. Here is the lumber to finish the job. We will put up 2"x 6" trusses. Once it is all studded in, I will take more photos of how we fixed things.

New addition and 1st snow....Yahoo

Hello everyone, you remember me don't you? LOL. Things are coming along nicely although I am a bit behind. The addition is almost complete.

That's my friend Matt above who is helping me

                           I will be putting a window in on this side.

                                       Sorry for the blurriness

                                   I think it looks pretty good.

The best part yet is, we got our first snow for the last 2 days, Finally

I have a new sign for my outhouse. Actually, Matt found it among my scrap wood and put it up, I laughed so much. But, it's perfect.

The broken window in the back of my truck, is my fault. I had something large and it slid back when I was going uphill. I may get it fixed, we'll see.

So anyway, we have about 6" right now and I am happy. This year, I plan to stay on top of it now that I have a super duty snowblower. Last year was a big mess. I hope everyone is doing well and I will try to post more often. Thanks and Take care.
