More Than Just a Dirt Hole!

Quite a bit has happened on Lot 15 in the last week! Our driveway has been scoped out with gravel...

...and now we have a dirt slab where our garage will soon be.

Our foundation footings and walls are also complete.

Since we have a walk out basement, we decided to upgrade to full size windows and a double basement door. You can see the windows and door framed out in the photos of the foundation walls.

Here's another view:

Our plumbing groundworks were also installed this week and passed inspection. Although we're not finishing our basement right now, we had the builder rough in the plumbing for a bathroom in the basement and a wetbar.

Here's a view of the foundation walls from the side:

If you walk in our basement from the backyard, this is what you will see. The bathroom will be in the back left corner and the wet bar to the right ahead of you.

If you come in from the backyard and look to the right, you'll see this:

Here's Brian surveying the progress:

And in case you didn't know it, I like to drive bulldozers in my spare time....

Next week, we're told that our slab will be poured and framing might even begin! Until then, we'll leave you with a sneak peak at our backyard...just imagine green grass...and BBQs!
