Ground-Breaking


Ground was officially broken this morning on our new garage. The masonry contractor arrived with his team at about 9:30 and pulled up the stump of our crepe myrtle tree by the roots. The ground will be prepped today and the concrete poured tomorrow. Hopefully the foundation should be finished by the end of the week. Then, next month, our intrepid family (both dads, Sarah's mom, A and Aa) will descend on Durham a week before Thanksgiving for our Garage-Raising Party. We're hoping to knock out the construction in a week and send them on their way stuffed with turkey and with our thanks. It should be quite an adventure, and we'll keep you posted as the project progresses.

Working fast over there sounds like you will have everything sorted in time for you moving back to see the NL's.

Glad to hear that the family are being kept busy doing it all
