Above and Below:  We have learned more about team work and leverage while working on the cabin.  The poles are very heavy but the three of us, Daniel, Zac and I, can lift one end of the poles then the other so they are up and ready to be cut.

About this time, we had finished our lunch and were getting back to work.  It was hot but that did not stop my work crew.  We were thrilled to see Tracy, Shawn, Michael, Ryan and Darian and Paige.
