Foundation & Footings.

Another busy week at 323.  Among the happenings was the news the sunroom we had intended to keep intact was "structurally compromised," and would need to be torn down and reconstructed. [insert gulp here.]  On the flip side, my wish for fair weather was granted, and great progress was made on the addition.  Temporary support walls were erected, the rear brick wall was almost entirely removed, and plywood was installed to conceal what would otherwise be a big, giant hole.  

The foundation and footings were on the week's agenda, and I was downright tickled to see the cement truck pull up on Tuesday afternoon.  

A large pipe was assembled, and literally loads of the grey stuff was pumped directly through the house and in to the backyard. 

A sign of things to come...welcome to our kitchen and family room!

And finally, another shot of the constantly changing back facade .  I don't think we can call  it an "upgrade" just yet.
