4th of July! We woke up really early so we could get over to install a few more trusses before the town's annual 4th of July parade. We started installing more trusses before 6am, and really started cranking them out. Again, it was all hands on deck with my folks and brother-in-law helping out while my wife operated the crane. We had two hours to get as much done as possible before a mandatory break. We probably got another five trusses installed before taking a break to celebrate our great Country's birthday.
Our family really loves the 4th of July, what red-blooded American doesn't? So my wife dressed up to ride in the neighbors float in the town's parade to throw candy out to the children in the audience. Their float won first place, and my wife wore her tutu to finish up the truss work. She and my step-mother joked about starting a new truss installation company call "Tutu Trusses."
With the final truss installed, it was time for some good ol' fashioned steak fajitas that my dad made on the smoker, cold beer, country music, fireworks, and some quality time with the family.
