We put on whatever jackets we had on hand and tried to huddle together to stay warm in the cold dawn. 😄😄🥶
Look at that fancy breaker and surge suppressor!
Measure, and measure some more! 🤪

Just before lunch, a dozen or so of the local speed goats stopped by to check out what we were up to.
They were only about a hundred yards out-pretty close for antelope!
By lunch, the second large panel was all bolted up and in place.

And just like that, the third big panel was also in its home!
Next came the tedious task of laying out and making all the knockouts for this gutter that seemingly had no end of holes that it needed put into it.😄😄🙄
Measure, measure, and measure again!🤪🤪
Sundown was also about dinner time. And as we left with the sun setting on the job site, things were starting to come together. There were fewer parts in boxes and more parts installed-always a good sign!
After dinner, we put in a couple more hours fully preparing the gutter for installation and adding strut for panel number four.
Then it was time for showers and sleep!
