1 wall up and three to go

We're on the way to a second floor. I arrived home from Wichita on Saturday morning to find Jim Worster (artist, fellow-transplant, who is giving a Pat a hand when one man cannot do the job alone), Tom Armstrong, Pat and Bill up on the roof of the very sturdy first floor of our house, getting ready to raise the front wall into place. I jumped in to help for awhile as they eased the wall up a few inches at a time, first in the middle, then at one end, then at the other, then back to the middle and up a few more inches, until Tom's level read vertical. But mostly I took pictures.
