weeks and completed the wall around the entire property.  Once the walls were complete by the middle of June we started on the additions to the property. Mike took a small four person team and started using the construction equipment to lay-out foundations to the extra building we wanted to make.  My parents house would be converted into a full blown command center, a thirty by thirty mess hall for cooking and eating in which would be located directly behind our new command center, a twenty by twenty armory for all the weapons and ammunition which would be built in the island of the driveway, two long cabins coving the entire north wall divided into small private rooms for everyone to sleep, and a pole barn which Mike said we needed supplies for in the southwest corner we would convert into a garage to maintain the vehicles and trailer we obtained.  Mike’s crew was able to lay all the foundations in two days as the rest of us started assembling walls and roofs that could go up once the foundations had set.  As soon as the foundations were set all the walls were installed and hinged together. Once the walls were up we continued to complete the floor while Chris began to run electrical wires to each build for the generator to supply power for either the equipment or needs of each room.  Blake and Brent were on the newly built roof over the kitchen applying shingles with Steve.  Jessica, Samantha, and Brianna were painting the outside of the house.  We will need to get drywall and installation for the rooms the next trip we make Mike suggested.  Chris went to work installing a new breaker box for the projects and then he can tie each breaker into the generator.  You found the top of the line eco-friendly generator Chris said.  It runs on solar power and if it doesn’t have enough solar power it will run on gasoline, so we will have full power to this land once I complete everything Chris said.  That’s awesome Rus said. Chris, Jason, and George will continue working on the electrical and we can get to work on the main doors Mike said. 
      The remodel in the new mess hall was in the final stages of being completed.  All the cooking supplies, freezers, fridges, cabinets, and food were installed and stocked.  Oh my god I said as I entered the newly finished room.  This is amazing Bev said.  Well once we unload the steam roller we found tables and chairs so the ladies can start setting up the mess hall while we finish the door I suggested.   Great let’s get to work Mike said.  Rus, Mike, Bruce, and I laid out the railroad ties and started to connect them with the two by fours we had cut to form two x-patterns at the top and bottom of the ties.  We turned it over and formed the same pattern on the opposite side to keep the ties together.  I brought the heavy duty hooks over and said we can use these for door knobs to pull the doors open.  We also mounted eight large hanging hooks across both doors.  One set was about four feet from the bottom of the door with the second set eighteen inches above the first set.  Mike was working on some hinges that would be mounted to the door and wall.  Once he was finished we mounted the hinges to the door and prepared to raise the door to the wall.  Everyone came out to help or see the first door go up.  We had the scaffold set up next to the wall with Mike, Chris, Bart, and Bev on it.  The plan was to get the door held up in place and the four on the scaffold to secure the hinges to the wall.  Rus got in the mini scoop and used the scoop to help lift the door up.  Standing behind Rus were twelve of the men and women in the camp holding ropes that were attached to the top of the door, so when Rus got the door standing vertical we could hold it in place and not allow it to tip over.  The door was now vertical and the team on the scaffold rushed to get the hinges secured.  Ok Rus back up Mike shouted.  Rus backed the mini scoop up and holding in place was one of
