Foundation Finally, Part II

Now that the piers were in we could start excavation for the frost wall and crawl space. This began on July 12th but was brought to an abrupt halt when Jay chipped a tooth off the excavator. Gotta love that ledge. He started up again the next day with the tooth welded back on. The footings were poured and erection of the formwork began the next day, July 16th.


Look at all the room in that crawl space! (Well it's more room than I gave Tobin to work in at Richard and Lorraine's.)


Anne and Kelly had to leave their marks, practicing for the day when they get that long-awaited call from Grauman's Chinese Theatre...

And the completed photos of the foundation neatly stripped. On Monday they will start backfilling and running utility lines with framing to follow. There should be a flurry of activity over the next month since our lease is up the end of August. Tick, tock, tick, tock.

I think you know but she didn't want me to post that pic. She still wants me to take it down.
