FRAMING (1st Floor)

It was so good to see them start Monday after Easter April 17, 2006 on the framing. By the time I got home on Wednesday they already had the first floor pretty much done. This week they should wrap up the second floor and start roofing, weather permitting. The Lord has been so good to let us come this far.

The Slab (FINALLY!!!!)


By April 13, 2006 the slab was poured. FINALLY!!! Andy at Oakland concrete did a really good job. It took us over four weeks to get to this point, yet it still feels so good to see it poured and ready for wood. Hopefully in the next four months we'll see it coming to completion








WELL


Wilson Well came out and installed it the day after I called them. Very happy so far. Glad to see the site progressing

Rough-in Plumbing


FINALLY!! We get to this point on April 5, 2006 - The plumbing went in and was done in one day. I'm glad to it progressing.

We Break Ground


Taken March 16, 2006 the day after completion of the grade. We re-measured and re-flaged the corners of the house. We also put up our sign and the lot number. It's finally on it's way

March 2006 Day Before Start

The house will sit close to the middle of this image to the left of the ditch, 100 feet back from the middle of the road.
