2 posts done! And...um...

The second post was concreted in on Wednesday and backfilled today (Saturday). I decided to go look at the southeast corner and see what it would take to jack that up.

There's no decent floor beam that I can use for jacking. All the floor joists are 2x6s...nothing more. I can still do it, but these joists need to be 4x6, ideally. I can probably just detach the "floor" and raise it up, instead of jacking the entire wing. The floor isn't well connected to the walls...and the walls are what's holding up the roof. Difficult to describe. You'd have to see it. I have to remember to take a picture of it. But, the porch (southeast corner, by the way) is now open to the air. This should be pretty easy.
