The Green Light

Sorry we haven't posted for a few days, and even sorrier that there are no pictures this post. Emily left the camera at a friend's house on Halloween and we have yet to retrieve it. I promise new pics soon. The other thing is that there hasn't been anything to really take pictures of.... the last time we were on site, things were drier and all the holes were filled in, but nothing too drastically different. However, it was a bit easier to see the lay of the land and visualize the finished area (I am already plotting my fire pit area, garden, bird feeders, etc.. :) ).

The most exciting thing this week is that we officially have a building permit! Terry picked it up today, so we are definitely able to move forward. We have the green light to pour the footer. The last we heard, Becky was coming out to dig the footer tomorrow or Friday (originally Terry planned to just put up forms for the concrete, but code requires it be dug below the frost line). After the dig, Terry will be able to pour the concrete. I am anxious for some heavy concrete trucks to come up so my gravel will get packed down so I can use my driveway!

Hopefully, I will have some new things to report soon. Stay tuned!
