First beams in place

We still don't have a building permit, which means we can't get a foundation inspection, and without the inspection, we can't do the concrete pour, but some of the other work can be done while we're waiting.

This is the first beam to be put in place. It's on the side of the main house.

The second beam.  The ground is not perfectly level, so the posts holding the beams have to be individually cut to size to ensure that the beams are level.
