This is an early 19th century smokehouse we relocated and restored several years ago.  The juniper shingle roof features fanned hips and was carried out over 4 of the hottest days of the year (105+ each day).  You can see our "circus tent" we erected to escape the sun while we worked.  There was no breeze so we couldn't work more than an hour at a time before we had to come down out of the sun.
