Ceiling beams up!

We have a pair of large ceiling beams that were hoisted into place today. Check out the ceiling beam delivery photoset! (If you have a fat pipe, try viewing it as a slideshow.)

We had a slight mishap, though. The crane operator parked right next to my neighbor’s fence, and he wasn’t watching too closely when he deployed the stabilizers–he pushed it right through one of the fence rails. I had some glue and clamps at home, so I took a stab at repairing the rail. Hopefully it’ll hold up, because a new rail just wouldn’t look right on this rustic fence…
