Today was concrete day! Yay! The guys have been out there all day in the dreary weather getting the slab down.
It took two trucks full of concrete.
Check out those boots.
Donnie let the girls put their handprints in the front corner of the garage.
I took this pic before he got the “R” scratched in. Don’t worry, it’s there.
That’s the name that comes to mind when I think of our future garage. It’s going to be big! It’s going to be a little taller than our house and wider than the existing garage. It needs to be big enough to hold Donnie’s bobcat, trailer, his office space, and normal everyday household stuff.
So here’s the cleared out space. Donnie started by marking the corners.
That’s our neighbor’s house and driveway in the background. The back of our garage will be up against the property line.
This is the spot where a huge oak tree was taken down. It was right outside the kitchen window. The interesting thing is that even though it looked healthy from the outside it was completely hollow on the inside. Glad it’s down! We had to take down 3 large oak trees in order to make room for the garage, pool, and patio.
Here’s Emmitt checking out the progress.
Here’s more progress. They are working on the footings. The plan is to have the termite spray tomorrow, inspection on Thursday, and pour the concrete on Friday.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
