Went over to the Bedford road construction site this morning and the foundation work is almost complete. \u00a0The major concrete action is done and I believe we are waiting for inspection. \u00a0Paul Hebert (my general contractor) and I finished (I hope) the paperwork at Salem Five Bank for my construction loan. \u00a0I think things will be moving forward on that front soon as well.<\/p>\n

A really, really professional job on the concrete from what I can see. \u00a0Very neat, smooth and square.<\/p>\n

\"Panoramic<\/a>

Panoramic (so double click on this to get the up close details) – foundation is in place and awaiting inspection. A very professional job!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Foundation<\/a>

Foundation for the garage (left) aka – The Shop – and the carport on the right<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Forest<\/a>

Forest of columns – viewed from the future front door. The house will be elevated on these columns as the hill slopes away. How high, I am not sure at this point.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"The<\/a>

The round tubes are for bearing the weight of the house. The square concrete structure is a corner that is going to take later thrust as well as bearing weight. In the back is the foundation for the chimney stack – I am putting in a Rumford Fireplace<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Looking<\/a>

Looking down the big pile of rubble towards the driveway – my Dad in the middle distance<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Big<\/a>

Big rocks and dirt pile – this is actually over the property line and the Kimballs have been quite gracious in allow us to store material there while construction is going on<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Looking<\/a>

Looking out towards the Mill Race and outflow pond from the Old Saw Mill<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
