Today was a beautiful day. We went to the site in the morning to pull invasives for three hours. The river was way up. Here is the standard view.

This weeks work was finishing the drain system and restoring the grade of the ground. Here is a picture of the Northeast corner showing a small unfinished section, but you can see that the North side of the house has been all filled in.

Here is a picture of the basement. They have not placed the supports yet (the wood is temporary) and they have not poured the floor yet. I assume both will happen this coming week.

After pulling invasives, we ate lunch. With the water level at the highest we have ever seen, we did not sit on our usual fallen tree at the water’s edge (since it is now in the river). But we did eat on top of the foundation. Here is Daphne eating lunch in what will be the corner of the game room.

Then we went for a two hour Kayak tour downstream. Here is an action shot of Daphne. 1 mile downstream against a strong wind, and one mile back (mostly coasting with the wind).

Finally, the construction video for the week is boring. Only one day had any action and the position of the camera was not idea. But here it is anyway.
