the basement



























They stripped the forms on our basement today.

On Monday, we called the mason and said we needed to get it done asap.
Tuesday, he showed up and they dug the hole.
Wednesday, they poured the footings and set up the forms.
Thursday, they finished the forms and poured the foundation.
Friday, they stripped the forms.

Next week will be the garage and the floors.

The pictures:
#1 is the foundation from the back of the house.
#2 is from the front. They just started taking the forms off. You can only see the top 12 inches of concrete.
#3 is a closer one of the back. This shows a smaller wall... it will be framed in wood and have a buncha windows in it.
#4 is from the Northwest corner.
