Man Camp

by Chovy Frohlich

A friend of mine calls construction sites "Man Camp", because no matter how intellectual a guy is, he secretly loves to do "manly" things like hammering, drilling, hauling, lifting, and operating light machinery as typically occurs on the job site.  At no point during construction is this more true than in the Framing Stage.  In the Framing Stage, the lumber is being erected for the walls and the outcome of the men's labor is immediately apparent with dramatic results.  Very gratifying work . . . good job, MEN!


Scott breaks a sweat but still has perfect hair:



Curtis does the repetitive precision work: 
Twelve nails for every hanger . . . in every beam . . . that's a LOT of nails!



Mike has a nice view from his "desk" - how many us of office workers are jealous?



Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting: the Man (aka Francisco) and the Plan (aka blueprints)
