Waiting for Bill
Bill had another busy day bouncing from here to there sorting out Al's stuff. He retrieved Al's truck from impound in Newport, ID, and barely got into Will's driveway in Spokane before the alternator and battery died. Amazing that Al got himself to the hospital with it in that condition.
I, on the other hand, was able to get the blocking done on the first wall and put the sill and cripples in for the two windows on that wall. In addition, I sewed three more blocks (thanks for the photos, Nan) and continue to wait for my book to sew the remaining 94 blocks. (I bought two books on Amazon, one for Nan and one for me, and she got hers earlier in the week.)
Since the walls are 9', the 4x8 sheeting (i.e. plywood etc.) doesn't cover from top to bottom, so blocking is placed at the joint of the large sheet with the partial sheet for secure nailing.
