Foundation is being worked on..

Hello fellow readers!

I just wanted to quickly post to let you know that we are still on course!
We did run into some rock where the elevator will go, but for now.. the digging is done and the foundation will be poured! WOO HOO!

As soon as the weather cooperates (rain, rain go away), I will take a visit down to the lot and snap a few pictures for you.

Bloggingly yours,
Stacy

I just thought I would pop in and download some fun footage of the construction crew hard at work.
Take a gander!

Holy Moly.. thats a big hole in the ground!

If you have gone by our construction site, you might be thinking one thing:

"Dang that's a big hole!"

...and of course, the observant you would be totally correct! That is indeed a big hole.

You just have no idea how excited I am about this giant hole. It means that we have not encountered that common evil villain known as Missouri rock. The basement is being dug as we speak and we are currently moving along as scheduled with bulldozers movin' daily. Cross your fingers and keep saying it with me "No rocks.. no rocks..."

Special thank you to Federal Construction for letting me get close enough to take pictures. I did indeed stay behind the orange fencing, but alas they suggested I not go in.... can't imagine why lol.

I did however want to leave you with one final picture. For some reason there is a giant rock sitting on the edge of our property. I guess this will be a souvenir for later seeing as it's as big as me and impossible to move. If you feel the need to venture out to the site, I would love to see a picture of you and Rocky together. If you havent gathered, Rocky is my new nickname for my buddy.

Ain't he precious.

Your blogging friend,

Stacy
