Another Day, Another Truck...

I don't know whether we have a little angel sitting on the shoulder of this project but even the weather seems to be helping us out..! It rained Sunday but come Monday and it was all systems go again. The second truck arrived with more wood; Rockwool insulation; boards for between the lower and upper floors and various other bits 'n peices.

 With the benefit of experience (!), the whole process went a lot smoother this time round and we had all of the packages off-loaded and in place by lunchtime. It is definitely a relief to know that, except for one more truck which will arrive at the end of the month with the doors, windows and our staircase, we have everything on site now to get cracking with the build.

And what is astonishing is how quickly the chalet is going up. By the end of yesterday, all of the floor beams for the upper floor were in place. I know I've said it already but this wood is HUGE - it's gorgeous and so beautiful to look at.

Note to self: Find another angle to photograph from... I'm running out of height!

Floor beams all done! In one afternoon. :)
