done for this year
We took down the rest of the sukkah yesterday morning before it rained. This year my brother and oldest nephew did most of the work for both putting up and taking down, because G hurt his wrist before the holidays and wasn't ready for heavy lifting. Also, the oldest nephew is now taller than I am (and my brother always has been) so the two of them together count as two tall people while G and I are one tall and one not-tall (but not really short, since I can just reach the schach if I stretch). I'm looking forward to the other nephews becoming taller than I am.
Once again we did different parts on different days, but this time there was a lot more coordinating between the three households (me, my brother, and our parents who own the sukkah and the yard). Overall it went well, and I'll probably ask my brother/nephew to help more again next year even if we don't need it as much.
