Happy Birthday


For my birthday, R.K. Higgins Construction Co. got me a basement. Although, they also gave me an invoice...

Progress



All I had to do was leave town for a week to get things going!

The Beach


I'd like to thank everyone (Jerry, Rita, Kevin, Kevin, Alex, Andrew, Sarah, Jessica, Matt, Henry, Amanda, Amaya, Martha, Tom, Jordan, Sam, Ava, Ree, and Jill) for a wonderful, relaxing week at the beach.  For those of you who missed it, I hope to see you very soon!

Fun with Dirt


After some trouble with soft soil at the back of the lot, the footings are ready to be poured! We ended up having to over excavate and put several tons of crushed stone wrapped in filter fabric beneath the footings.

I'll be very relieved to finally have something permanent in the ground.
