Lumber piles disappeared

We drove over to the new house today and the first thing I noticed was that the piles of lumber were gone. I looked at the house and also noticed that the house was not finished, so what happened to all the lumber. Did it get stolen? You do hear of that happening. But that was not what happened to our lumber.

They got a crane and lifted all the lumber up to the second floor. So the only lumber left on the ground are the two big beams that will go up when the second floor is finished.

On another note we had holes drilled for the piles for the garage floor, the front sidewalk and steps and the back patio. Unfortunately with so much rain some of them have caved in and we are going to have to re-drill them and then get them filled with cement as soon as possible.

Lumber piles smaller



The piles of lumber are getting smaller. There are more walls. We were fortunate to be able to watch some of the work involved in getting the large back wall up. It was quite the job.
