Ancient Tree Carvings



I couldn't resist the urge to take some random photos of the job site/war zone at 3105 Polley Road. The changes are amazing and it is so much fun to come home at the end of a day to see the progress. We walk the site each night and take in all of the changes and often times the neighbors stop by to check out the construction. Everyone is so excited for us and they don't seem to mind all of the dirt and noise that has been created thus far. We are very lucky to be surrounded by such supportive neighbors and friends.

Excavation Begins for Foundations





This project is really moving quickly it seems so far! Sean worked on the calculations early this morning in preparation for the poured walls guys to come and excavate for the foundation footers. They would be digging at the front for the new front entrance and porch and also at the back for the living room and covered porch.
The project really feels for real now and we are starting to feel the pinch of having people at your house from 7:30 am until 5:30pm. It isn't that bad, but we aren't sure how long we will really last living here. They will be having to turn off the gas and water services next week to get the services relocated, so maybe that will be the time we take our field trips to our friend's houses for a hot shower....
