Portico

Yesterday and today they put the portico up around the front door. But first, they did a lot of other stuff as well. They built the roof over the garage.

Garage RoofAfter the roof is finished, they will jack up that huge beam so that the roof rests on it for support. The beam will then take the weight of the roof off of the side walls.

They built the eyebrow over the garage doors.
