Progress still :) The hole is in!

Russell and I again went up to the lot last night (8/29/05). We got there kind of late so the pictures are a bit on the darker side.


Russell walking in our future basement!


I am starting to get a hang of this blogger thing - hopefully I will get better and better!

This shot shows another view of the hole


a close up of the different layers of dirt i don't know why i htought it was so cool- but i did.

They aren't working today at last check (8/30/2005) I guess due to impending bad weather. All in all we are pleased with the progress...they have worked 2 and a half days- and the foundation is ready to go in.

Thanks for checking in with us!!

Progress!!!

We went up Friday afternoon 8/26/05 and took these pics!!



They are really moving!

Pre-Pictures!

Russell and I went up to the lot to take some starter pics!!!

This picture is from across the street.

Russell decided to climb his Aunt and Uncles roof - and take a shot from up there:

One of our views!

Hello there!

Russell and I wanted to create a blog so everyone can keep track of our progress with our house. As you all know we finally got our building permit on August 11th!! (Happy birthday mom!!). A. Sharon and U. John really pulled through and went into the county and fought them on issuing our permit. Well she knew the right buttons to push! My first call from Russell updating me on the situation and the progress was - "we should have a permit in 4 weeks". He called a bit later "she has them down to 2 weeks". A little later I got a call- "next week". Then the final call - "by noon TOMORROW!!!" WHOOHOO we are in business!!
