at the house today when Dave with Diggers inc showed up to do some backfilling with his bobcat. The boys loved watching him move the dirt around and work his magic. Now it is nice and smooth for the winter(hopefully not any to soon).

after getting the upper floor trusses & walls up I was able to pull off the wall braces, much easier moving around & getting a feel for the full layout.

Jim with Bosl Construction, along with Bill, Joe(my dad) & myself we get all the exterior walls up along with getting them sheathed and ready for interior walls, windows are so overrated? Its really taking shape, starting to look like something.

after discussing things over with Leon from Stocking Masonry the prior day, they decided to pour the basement floor today. We covered the entire upper level floor & any other areas we could to try to keep any water from going throught floors onto the concrete floor. If the weather holds out, the floor with turn out just as great as the garage floor did. The wet weather made it interesting for the cement trucks to make their way to the dump stop(always intersting with that much wt in them.

after working through the not so nice weather, we finally got some upper level walls up & in place.
