The weather was hard to predict. We had to work very hard when the wind was not blowing, and then go in the house when the wind blew. It was hard to hold the insulation and sheeting up in the wind. The wind and cold weather was the most difficult thing to deal with.
Daniel and Hayden, and sometime Dalton and Me, would hold the insulation from the double sided sticky that was on the bottom metal piece. Then when it was time, they would pull tight and adhere it to the tape at the bottom. Thank goodness Daniels weighs a lot so he could pull it down. He had to use all his strength to pull it down, now if you could just see his face!
Hayden is holding the panel while Russell is up screwing the top into place.
Don't forget the spacer, it all must look uniform. (It's not rust you see on the bottom of the panel, it's dirt, or should we say wet sand.)
Hayden is here pushing the panel into place, while Russell puts the screws in.
The top is screwed in, so no need to push real hard at this point. Just steady it, so the wind doesn't blow it away.
Russell is screwing in a screw at the top.
Here he comes on the snorkel we rented from Cat. This made the project much easier. One screw in the top and then to the bottom to work his way up.
Time for another roll of insulation. Russell would put it on the snorkel, ride to the top, and let go while someone would catch the bottom before it got stuck to the double sided sticky tape that was attached to the bottom and top metal piece.
This is what the insulation looks like from the inside of the building. 
The garage doors got put on and now on too the electrical.
