After a very snowy hiatus, Stein, Nelson, Bud and Earlen returned to the site to dig out the snow in preparation for putting in the underground drain tiles.
Time to replace the sidewalk that was damaged by equipment during construction. It will take one full truckload -- almost 10 cubic yards. Stein guides the chute while Nelson and the rest of the crew muck it out. It's a cool, almost rainy day: perfect for pouring concrete. Reynar trowels the edges. Jarle smooths the surface, while Stein works the bullnose. The cool weather gives plenty of time for the concrete to firm up. Jarle uses the fresnel and then a broom for the final finish. Upstairs, the cleaning crew is starting to remove all the construction dust that has built up over the months.
The siding is just about complete on the west side of the building. The masons have arrived to start the exterior stonework. First step: tarpaper to protect the wood underneath.
Kurt cut and installed the apron around the kitchen sink. Then started to attach the drawer pulls on the kitchen cabinets. Garage door openers are in. Cactus installed the gate for the dog run.
