Hooray!

Over the weekend David Vreeland, an engineer, made time in his busy schedule to work with us on the foundation. (Thank you David!) As it turns out, although we made a couple of alterations, I did design the shallow frost protected foundation correctly. David got the stamped plan to us on Tuesday; that afternoon I was at the building inspection office with the rest of the revisions and going over them with the building inspector. After making another few small adjustments on the fly we finally got the go-ahead!

This afternoon sitework will resume. Life is about to get hectic.

Below are some pictures of the sitework that was done in the previous week and half.

Stump grinding. The stumps that were not under either foundation were ground. It disturbs the soil less.
