Last Footing





Hopefully, barring a natural disaster, I was able to finish my last footing today. The weather looks decent for a week so I decided to knock down the back porch and rebuild the roof. I was able to incorporate the spring box into the foundation so Maranda will be able to use it as a planter or something when we are all done. I figured I was better at working wood than block so I built forms to pour solid concrete all at once and then I will frame on top of that. It took about 16 bags of concrete...not so awful. I got the anchor bolts laid in and hopefully I can do the demo tomorrow and begin the framing. As soon as I complete this the exterior will almost be complete and the plumbers will be able to do all the rough in at once.
