This Saturday we returned to the house to work for a few hours continuing the removal of invasives. We also gave three more house tours and ate lunch with friends on the porch.
This past week, they worked on the garage and breezeway. This included putting the shingles on those two roofs, as well as installing the garage window and building a foundation for the generator. Here is a picture of the back of the garage; the generator foundation is on the right.
They are also starting to put in the passageway, under the deck, into the basement. Its looks like the work is about half done. They have the drainage in place, but have not filled in the walkway yet.
Inside the house, the plumber has been busy with the drains (no water pipes yet). Here is a corner of the basement where you can see drains coming in from the left and right, which still need to be hooked up to the septic system (which will be on the other side of the wall at that gap.
I found the plumber’s plans on a piece of wood lying around the house. He did not plan out the pipes until he was actually in the house.
The water level of the river is way down. There has not been any good rain recently.
Finally here is this weeks construction video. This is the back side of t he breezeway and the garage.
