Now the fun begins!!

The DREAM of building a new home on the family farm is beginning to come true.  I met the builder on the lot two days ago, along with the excavating person to talk about placement of the house on the lot.  The plan is to remove the topsoil, get the footers dug and inspected and possibly in two days have the concrete footers in place.  The push to get this done in a short period of time is due to rain coming this way in three days.

After looking at these plans on paper for the last five years, it sure looks smaller than envisioned now that the digging has started.

Good news is the building inspector has inspected the footers and they have been approved.  Next we will see concrete being poured.
