More on the construction effort ...

At the last construction update, we had rough-in plumbing.  When we returned to the construction site just a few days later, the concrete floor of the basement has been poured.

Here's the basement on June 30.

And just a couple of days later (July 3), the framing has begun.  This perspective is from the garage ... note the aggregate and reinforcing steel that has been placed.  The framing will be the rear exterior wall of the basement.

This the garage floor, prior to the concrete placement.

Jeff and Cluny are standing at the rear elevation. 

When I went to the site on July 12, it looks like we are really making progress. The steel I-beam that will support the structure is in place and the floor joists are going in.  Notice the square hole straight up from the ladder ... pretty soon, that will be the basement stairs. 

In the foreground of the second picture, the concrete for the garage floor has been poured.
