Carraige house stable repairs underway

Today was the start of jacking up the walls of the stable corner of the carraige house. George and I are helping John Ford. He's the brains, we do the grunt work.

Before ...................................... After about 3" of lift
After we got up about 3", the upper left corner where it attaches to the main structure began to separate. It had a small gap before but it began to open quite a bit. We attributed this to the resistance of the new plywood roof that was put on two years ago. So, we had to stop lifting and put some carraige bolts (very appripriate for a carraige house!) connecting the roof rafters to stabilize it. Tomorrow we lift some more.
