Pouring the Foundation

After they cleared the area of snow on Monday, they dug the driveway and cut the last trees on Tuesday. On Wednesday, the foundation was poured.

Sorry, I didn't record this movie so I take no responsibility for motion sickness.

...and We're Back On

Standstill in the Snow...

Well, we are at a brake in the work just after it started. Behold......

Addition is on

Its been a long time, but we are finally doing something with the addition.
After months of plans and contractor bids, then more more months of financing hell, we have the building permit approved.
The septic tank was upgraded by Freestate septic. Then last Friday, they started to remove some trees that are in the way. I was suprised, as was the Gary Luckett (our General Contractor). Although, a little chaos ensued because they weren't expected till Monday, I'm glad they did. Because it has snowed since Saturday. More snow this weekend. So, I don't expect to see much else done till next week.

A day at niagara falls

First day with the Thompsons in Buffalo we went to Niagara Falls.
Enjoyed the walk along the falls on the deck. I can see why the Canada
side is popular. But , very touristy.
