We have been watching them build a house next door to us. It is amazing how quickly they can get walls built and raised. The guys walk across the top of narrow boards like they are walking across flat ground instead of up in the air. There are usually only two or three guys on a crew getting whatever the next part of the job is done. Each crew seems to have their own specialty. We have been impressed at how well the owner/contractor has coordinated the work being done. It is his first building project in Yuma. He has built homes in California around San Diego before this project.
He told us he probably wouldn't build another house in Yuma. It has been difficult for him to get workers and the ones he has gotten have had to redo a lot of their work because it wasn't done correctly the first time. I didn't mean to take a video of the house covered in sheeting with the shingle bundles on the roof waiting to be installed. It's supposed to be just a picture so you can't click on it.
We have been busy buying a house in Tucson so I have fallen behind on doing the blog. I should have pics of the house to show soon. I'm looking forward to showing more new things of interest around Tucson. We have been coming to Yuma for so long that there isn't much new to put on this blog.
