Footers and Forms

Well the rain has stopped and we were able to get some work done on the house.  The footers were finally poured and this week they have started putting the forms up for the basement walls.  Since we have opted for poured concrete walls instead of block walls they set forms to hold them in place until the concrete is stable.  We are about 6 weeks behind because of the weather.  It is nice to know we are making some progress now.  Below are a few pictures of what is going on.

Come back in July!  Yes, the rain has caused many delays in our house building.  The good news is that the basement is dug out.  The bad news is, well, rain.  Take a deep breath and be patient.  Here are a few pics…

Ellie thinks Dad has lots of firewood to cut up.  He has a long winter ahead of him.
