I still say, "It looks so small!"
We had 3 concrete trucks there all at once pouring the footings. I asked Tyler how much each of them cost and he said about $1,000. Charley climbed up one of the dirt piles they built from excavation and took this birds-eye picture.
In digging, they found this clay that several people said they had never seen before. Paul, the excavator, said this is the type of clay you would use to line a pond. Most of the footings are dug down into this layer and they said we couldn't have had a better foundation to build our house. God is good!
This is the crew Tyler uses for this kind of work. They were great! The little boy is 6 and his school hasn't started yet so he was out there with his dad all day. I never heard a complaint out of him that he was hot or bored!
Tyler's kids were there after school and they were all out there having fun.
This is Tyler Oberman, our builder. Yesterday several times we heard, "He's the best!"
Last night when the building inspector came, he said we didn't need to worry about things being done right with Tyler.
And there always has to be a "peanut gallery" - right? We can sit in the comfort of the kids' front porch and keep an eye on things.
Did you know we had monkeys in Kentucky?
Another exciting day in the Bluegrass.
