House Update #5


Despite our rainy weather last week, the sun shone bright enough to dry out our lot this week.  Concrete was poured and the slab is ready for framing.  There are bundles of lumber stacked around the perimeter, just waiting to be made into the frame of our new home.


The garage slab is 6 inches lower than the rest of the house for spill/rain/water reasons.  A garage will never be as water tight as the rest of the home, so our builder takes precautions by lowering the slab to prevent any water that gets into the garage from getting into the house.


As you can see, Curtis has also found us some more dirt.  We will need this to continue to level out our lot and make a great big, and FLAT, backyard. Framing should begin next week!

Cheers -
Caroline
