Foundational

The foundation was supposed to be poured on Friday, then Tuesday morning, then Tuesday around 3PM.  Finally the concrete trucks came at 6PM!!   I think I'm getting excited now.

The day started with bottling a batch of wine.  Ashley spent the day with us and shared in the big moment. Despite waiting for the cement mixers to arrive we managed to have a fun and productive day.  Fish and chips, caesar salad at the PUB, banking, chainsaw and weed whacker shopping, then mussels downtown while waiting the second time around.  

En route!
A fine vintage.

Finally...the worse of the wall/stairwell is in place.  It is somewhat monstrous but will 'soften' up when we get some landscaping, grapevines??? in.    The Septic tank has been connected to the house.  The water has been connected to the house but the pump hasn't been put in the well and connected yet.  Tomorrow... we're told.  Flipping a coin for who gets to flush first.  LOL    Insulation repairs began today...amid the flurries, wind, sun, rain, flurries, sun, blizzard, sun.    Vanity in progress. "Artist rendition" not to scale... Well to house trench.  Trench filled. Insulation repairs.

One big pine down and one BIG chainsaw.
