Trusses!

 It was February when the trusses arrived.

It was a pity that the truck wasn't able to get those trusses up to the house a normal way. We are too far up from the street to be able to use the regular crane, and with no truck-accessible driveway. 

Our driveway had long been partially de-constructed because of its uselessness; it was too steep, as it turned out, for getting an RV up to the pad, so a new pad was built halfway down. The "driveway" became a wide path instead.

 The truss truck driver needed to be closer, so the only way was to pull up in a neighbor's driveway, and over across an empty lot to the back of the house. In the mud. The resulting deep ruts made nobody happy.
