The view from the backyard. This would be the dump truck which possesses all of the gravel that will be put into the basement in the next few days. Its quite a bit of gravel. Whats better is that is a great older model ford dump truck thats just parked in my backyard. I think they are going to start on this tomorrow, which means we should be laying concrete in the basement by Tues/Wed if all goes well. This will then allow us to begin framing and mechanical installation in the basement.


I am quite excited to see how the radiant process works. I am going have to take a few hours off work several days next week to watch the process of laying down the tube and pouring the floor. I am really interested to see it all play out.


The last pieces of the demo came down on Thursday with the walls and framework between the main living space and the library / sitting room (we are honestly not sure what to call it) . What you see in front of you is all of the rough plumbing supplies that were delivered today. Our plumber (who is awesome) has already cut all of the holes in the necessary to place the PVC piping in place; now its just a matter of putting it in. The plumber says if he is the new floor is in an cured by the middle of the week next week, then he will be done by Friday. That will mean we are left for only the plumbing finishes which would be the installation of all of the faucets.
