Our excavator showed up yesterday and began additional grooming of the road up to the house. It had an "S" curve in it that was problematic for delivery trucks, and since the trusses will be arriving next week, we wanted to assure a successful delivery with no issues like we had with the 70-ft rig that showed up with trusses for the shop and garage last September. He also put in another 20-ft piece of culvert and widened the driveway access.
Bill returned from Anacortes today where he took back the material hoist and stopped at Skagit Steel to get metal plates for the porch beam joints. The off-the-shelf variety were $24 each which he wasn't willing to pay since we need 12. He had to drill the screw holes in them but that was easy work with his drill press.
