Reconstructing the shelter

 The shelter had to be removed in order for 470 to be removed by a crane and 163 put in place.  The shelter framing was set aside for the transfer and now will be replaced and covered with a new cover.

A "cherry picker" was used to move the framing arches from where they were stored on site to the base posts that were left in place.
Ron and, I believe, John are helping to guide the arches into place.
The last arch being secured.
The cross bracing was installed.
Dean is securing a fastener.
Ready for the cover.
