You have to be grinning ear to ear, seems like it's taken a long time. More details please.
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

Got there a little late this morning. 3 cement trucks, cement pumper, two wall supply trucks and folks crawling all over the forms
 
This was supposed to happen in April but bankers and bureaucrats got in the way. But we're rolling now!

Every time I look at the first picture in the post, the back wall of the hole looks for all the world like a shot of the Grand Canyon or Monument Valley, from an old John Ford western.
If you are going down a river at 2 mph and your canoe loses a wheel, how much pancake mix would you need to shingle your roof?

Looking good. That was allot of digging but luckily easy digging. Here it's rock hard black clay or solid rock or a combination of the two hence basements are rare because the basement would cost more than the house to build...
A friend of mine in Oklahoma bought some property and it's two seperate plots. His shop is going to be built on one of them and the shop on the other. They said he can't build his shop on the other piece of property because it doesn't have a house on it. Now that's moronic... |
