Week 3: Let's Get Ready To RUUUMMMMBBBBLLLEEE!!!

Okay sports fans this is the week we've all been waiting for!!! After 8 months of planning, approving, desiging, bidding, redesiging, permitting and waiting...we've finally broken ground!!!





The momentus occasion happened on Monday, April 14 at around 8am. There was a circus of activity happening at Casa L'Armour! Earth movers, cement troops and eager looking construction types.


The process wasn't 100% without incident, though.


My lot originally had a house on it that was torn down in 1999. Well, when those jokers tore down the house, instead of carting away the construction debris, they simply buried it in the land! So as the footing folks were digging they kept hitting rocks that were left over from the old house. (Big pain!) It was fine on all the elevations except the south elevation. They had to dig down 8ft to reach solid dirt. Rick the builder says that's gonna cost me money! He always says that! Bastardo!!!




Anywho, I'm still dizzy with excitement!!!
