This has been another productive week. Brent and his crew took the house from it's semi-turned state and got it aligned in the proper direction. It was nerve wracking to watch, but they made it look quite easy. On Wednesday morning Trainor surveying came and marked out the four corners of our foundation in the hole dug the day before. On Thursday Brent and his crew slid the house over the hole and got it into perfect alignment with the corners laid out by Trainors. At this point Tim Larlee and his crew from Capital Construction came in and poured our footings. With the house high over head they made short work of their task and waited for the concrete to cure. On Friday morning Capital came back and put up their forms for our new 8 ft foundation. After lunch on Friday Mira Construction Concrete trucks and a pumper truck showed up to fill our forms. By about 4:00 the foundation was in and the crew were sent home for the weekend. Everything that was supposed to be accomplished this week was finished. Our project seems to be right on course. Hopefully our luck will continue, cross your fingers!

Ok, so question...you are turning the house 90 degrees? so it is facing the trail now?
You got it Meg, it now faces the trail. It just needs to drop down ~3 feet and it will be in it's new permanent spot. We hope to move back in in a week or so, so we can get on with painting, fencing, sod, etc. You'll be invited to our first garden party!
