I had to go back to work in 1 week, and so far I only had the first floor walls built. I had been waiting on lumber and materials for weeks and couldn't start building without the beams. I wanted kiln dried beams instead of green hemlock and when the beams came in, it was go time. We put up the beams and 2nd floor tongue and groove ceiling in one day, and built the walls the next two days. We built the entire roof structure in one day and sheathed it the two following days. Crazy!
