Beautiful Sunday Morning!


We woke up to sunny skies again today!  Wow!  Two days in a row. I think that is a record so far this spring.  

Well I thought I should post a quick update on the house. Due to weather progress has been slower than what we had hoped but in the absence of construction activity we have had time to shop for things like facets, stone, flooring and tile for the bathrooms. So we have gotten a lot of decisions made and choices agreed upon.  And....this has proven once again that building for us is not an ordeal because we agree on a majority of items and on the few things we might have differences, neither of us has stood firm but compromised.  We seemed to almost always like the same thing even when looking separately and then showing the other we find we chose the same thing!  :)

First 4 loads, 58 tons, of gravel in basement covering the plumbing.  270 finished the job of backfilling.

Starting the rough grading, side dirt pile gone, two more to go

More gravel for base of flatwork in basement; standing in future back bedroom in lower level.  On main floor it would be the master bathroom.

Have a great week.  Check back again for other updates.   :)
