Hey Whit, where abouts is this place of yours? I may be on my way down to pick up a truck for a friend and might stop by to say hi.

Looks Good Whit... Only thing to add being an ex-truss salesman/engineer use diagonal bracing on your trusses. i have made twice the $$$ on alot of jobs because a small breeze came by and knocked down an unsheathed job.
