Worked all day building forms for the auxiliary storage area walls.  Screwed up virtually everything I touched all morning; just one of those days!  Consequently, only got the two forms for the exterior side done, but did install the wall reinforcing steel mesh and roof reinforcing rebar.  This puts us well behind schedule, as I had hoped to place concrete for those walls and the roof on Sunday while Katy and Alex are here to help.  Chree only saw one mosquito all day, but a sudden influx of deer flies late afternoon caused her to don her bee keepers helmet for the last hour of work.  The air temp today was 70 degrees; the lake temperature is 75.  Ahhhhh!!!!!  After a steak-on-the-grill dinner, began the substantial task of making used-but-not-worth-keeping lumber and plywood become pretty flames and smoke.
