Saturday

Roof Raised.

Every once in a while, you can't fake it on your own. Sometimes in life you have to call in the professionals.  It's not easy to admit, but what they bring to the table can't be synthetically manufactured.  


The grounds crew of the Winooski Valley Parks District, which calls the Ethan Allen Homestead their home, came out to hit a final home run on the timber frame.  Tim, James and Ben - who all helped hoist the rafters - were kind enough to carve out a part of their fall season to install the galvanized roof. 


I special thanks goes to Ben who, as the tallest member of the group, spend the entire afternoon holding on to the bottom rung of a home-spun version of ladder-staging to keep me as safe as I could be.
