Sunday, October 28th, 2007This is the cooktop we purchased back in July. It only has four burners, but that is okay as a fifth burner requires a larger chunk of countertop. The oven is all wrapped and packaged up so I do not have a good picture of that yet.

Misunderstanding?
Sunday, October 28th, 2007A number of our visitors state they see pictures of the lot but none of the basement. Ummm, photographs of the basement and foundation are included.

Sunday, October 21st, 2007Are the subcontractors. However, I have one problem with the lot of them: they do not have webpages I can link to!
So far Circle S from Navarino, Bayland Excavating, and John Skotzke Concrete have performed work on this project. None of those three outfits have websites but do show up in various listings.

Curing
Sunday, October 21st, 2007 The foundation and basement walls are set. Yesterday was a beautiful day and we are ready to move forward with the work but for one thing. The weather.

I […]
