Footers

Learning curve...

I'm learning so much these days! Never mind what about... KIDDING it's just about photo's and such. Enjoy!

I'm guessing if you click on it you can get a larger size. SO NEAT!!!

New Pictures...

 

Please bear with me as I learn how to post with Picasa... ARGH!

Random...

Above are the pictures from last weeks construction. And a cute baby bovine thrown in for good measure! :) It's amazing the difference between good construction and bad. I know I don't know it all, after all I was reminded of this again on Thursday by a kind person who in his words "didn't mean to insult my intelligence BUT". However to my credit I did know what he was concerned over. I may look dumb, but there is a brain in this thick head of mine.

Anyway enjoy the pictures. It's even better in person! :) Thrilled is beyond what we can even think or say.

We've got footers!

These are posted in a random order. The forms for the walls are starting to go in. It's a wonderful site! :) More pictures over the week end...

Notice anything Different? Or Good vs Bad

North View with L.
Forms on top of the clay BEFORE the rains came.

North view down in the former "pond"as we are now calling it.

Another View from the "pond".

Front View with L.'s excavation.

I couldn't find the pictures I was wanting to find. I believe I took them with my old 35mm so the disc they are on is well where ever I last left it.

However can any one notice the differences between L's excavation and Jerrett's? Other than Jerrett's is a larger hole because of the over excavation which we didn't know happened until after the fact. Jerretts have actually excavated the sight so it will DRAIN. Granted there are a few puddles but it's not 6-8" of standing water in side the forms after the footings were poured. OK to make myself clear the water was standing inside the forms making a small lake inside where the floor had to be poured and on the outside of the forms. What a mess.
