The second week of work at ATC's Crew Basecamp at Soak Ash Creek was a huge success. The crew of volunteers from Smoky Mountains Hiking Club worked to install the trusses that will support the plywood sub-floor.

| The crew got an early start on Saturday, January 11. |
 |
| Meanwhile, the new foyer railing was getting a paint job. |
 |
Wayne waits patiently for the first delivery of concrete.
This will be the outside doorway from the basement. |
 |
| The lintel is added. These suckers are heavy! |
 |
| By the end of Saturday, about half the pool had trusses. |

The rain from Saturday subsided enough for intrepid volunteers
Casey and Pam to ditch around the driveway, encouraging
better drainage around the house. |

 |
Carolyn and Phyllis kept volunteers well fed and
managed to create order in the kitchen. |
 |
Planning underway for the stairwell and retaining wall
for the basement entrance. |

Long shadows indicate the end of the day, a long day of digging,
and signaled the end of the ditching project. |

| Trusses in place. Just about time to add the decking! |
Until next time...
