The team left for the work site at 5:30 a.m. The first wall was raised at 11:06 a.m.
Bands of heavy clouds alternating with blue sky persisted all morning, until we had a heavy shower around lunch time. Midafternoon brought a torrential thunderstorm that blew away some tents and damaged others. But it was over within half an hour, and work continued.
The house is now under roof. The electrical team worked until 9:30 p.m., and most of the wiring is now in place for rough inspection tomorrow.
