July 15th, Concrete is Poured!!!
After weeks of planning and prep work, we are awaiting the arrival of Cement Trucks so that the foundation slab and walls can be poured... once that is finished then the walls can be erected and we can play with grown-up toys - nailguns, circular saws, and the new drywall lift!
after weeks of planning, prepping, wood-forms,
rebar, and inspections, and revisions, and planning, and zoning, and pemits, and revisions and planning and payments...
