More pics

The basement (if you couldn't tell). Yep, that's about it.

Just some pics

Here are some updated pics. Things seem to be going forward. Next saturday the trusses should arrive.

Pour woodshop

The final pour is in Dad's woodshop. I had to get ready to fly out to Phoenix so I couldn't stick around and see the final results. Now with this woodshop Dad should have an immaculate garage and shop. Ha, Ha, Ha!! Dad is sitting here laughing as I'm typing this. Like I said, I have a great imagination.

Basement floor

They started pouring the back stairs first and then poured the basement floor. After several hours of troweling you can see that it's pretty smooth and almost finished. It's really starting to look like something now. Can you see my storage room at the top of the picture? I can just imagine us sitting in Dad's theater(at the bottom of the picture) and watching a movie. I have a very good imagination, don't I?

Grading

After filling the woodshop area they spread the rest of the dirt around the yard making it level. Check out that neat looking covered ditch. So smooth, flat and no weeds.

Bobcat

The floor needed dirt to be added to make it level for the concrete pour. Look at this clever way to lower this little bobcat down so it could do it's work.

Dirt pile

Here's the next part of our renovation saga. What came out now must be put back in to fill around the foundations.
