muddy hill wins

We have been waiting for three weeks for the ground to dry out enough to get a concrete truck up the hill to pour the footings for the garage, the front porch, and footings for rock walls. After the freeze the ground has been very muddy, but we thought it was OK to order the concrete on Thursday. WRONG! The truck wound up cross ways in the road and had the contractor had to have a tow truck come and straighten it out so he could drive back down the hill--- with our concrete.

It rained again Thursday night, so we are back in the waiting mode for beginning the garage for a few more days.

In the meantime, the crown molding will be completed today. Tim and his son will be work on installing doors today. We are waiting on a back order for the attic space doors (either side of the loft) so we can heat the house and "warm up" the hardwood for installation. We will be buying door hardware this weekend, so we can secure the house.
