Day 10

June 4

 

We've reached the elevation for the footers and stem wall.  Pro's will put those in.

 

 

Day 9

June 3

 

Half Day — The project became less of a hole as more trucks of sand rolled in, but the day ground to a halt when a tire went flat on the backhoe.

 

 

How many more days until this:

 

Day 8

May 30

 

After 20+ truckloads of sand, we still have to raise the ground another 3 feet.

 

 

Day 7

 

The sand starts coming in.

 

Day 6

 

We are taking the holiday off from construction and we're back in the current yard digging up cypress knees and a pine tree stump.  Our neighbor Jeff just loves running the backhoe and he's a big help.
