46 days and counting. . .






I guess we can take 10 days off of my count. I am counting from when we got the building permit on August 30, 2007. The first dirt was moved on September 10, 2007. First we waited for the excavation, and then the concrete guys really worked hard to get all the footings in and the flat work for the crawl space and the parking pad in front of the garage. Checquers has been so unsettled as the first thing to go was his kennel. We finally got a temporary one set up in the front yard and he is much happier. It took quite some time for the concrete to be done, and I hadn't seen a stick of wood until last Monday, October 6th. Now the whole downstairs is framed and the sheeting put on to stabilize it. They should hang the trusses this week. Here are a couple more pictures to show the progress or not. I can't figure out how to post them in the right succession.

Thanks so much, Becky. This is a great idea. I know this is going to be a tough time for you, but it will be so great when it's done. I'm praying for a mild winter, so it will go fast!

Hey! I need another picture to see some progress. What's going on this month with the project? We need to go out and get caught up. Stop by anytime.
