Vroegoggend Maandag 24 Augustus op pad na die bouterrein met River Road.

Hout was reeds afgelewer en wag ons op die 'framers' om op te daag.
Lumber had been deliverd and we were waiting for the framing crew to arrive.
Hier het hulle aan die gang gekom met afmerking van die plangegewens.

Toe ek teen middagete terugkom, was daar reeds vordering met beide die motorhuis en die huis.
At my return by lunch time progress had been made on the house and garage.
Behandelde hout is die grondslag, wat vasgebout raak. Hier is die gate geboor en opgelyn voordat die raamwerk (hierbo) daaraan vasgeheg is.

Hierdie gesig het my gedurende die naweek laat navraag doen: wie se versekering dek die werker, myne of die maatskappy s'n?
This sight prompted me to inquire whose insurance covers the workers, mine or the framing company's?
