Footings poured, Forms up

The guys poured the footings a couple days ago and filled around them with the perimeter drains and more crushed stone on top. They came today to set up the forms to pour the foundation walls on Monday. Moving right along!

Goodbye Ledge, Hello Foundation Prep

With the ledge cleared out, stone was filled and the footing forms are in place. Footings will be poured tomorrow! Check out the pics.

Driveway in the rough

Now the driveway has been completely roughed in. The house site is cleared out and the foundation hole has been dug. You'll also see in the photos the drainage pipe and path into the woods. The excavator tried his best to break up some ledge that was discovered by dropping several of the giant boulders that he found onto the ledge. Unfortunately it didn't break it and we have to have a hoe ram come in to chip it away on Monday. Yay!

How about this collection of rocks and trees?

Site work underway

We finally closed on the construction loan on July 7 and the site work is underway! Check out the pictures!
