A bigger hole



They did most of the digging for the foundation over the weekend.

In the foreground you can just see one of the stakes that marks a corner. They mark out a space that's one foot larger than the footprint of the house--Kat explained what that space is for, but I've forgotten. I'll try to find out and post with the details.

They're in a hurry to pour the slab before it gets cold, but there's a possible hold-up. They need to know that the sewer line is in good shape first, but nobody knows. If they can't find out any other way, they may need to get someone to run a camera down the sewer pipe to check it out. That would be a source of delay.



Assuming they can get the sewer pipe confirmed as good, Kat is hoping things will move along at a good pace next week.

I'll try to get out and take some pictures, of the various stages.
