Tree Wars Episode VI



Return of the Builder

So we finally closed on our construction loan (July 2016, only 4 months behind schedule) and the builder came up and got started. This is pretty much the same location as I took the photo in Episode II. You can see a stake on the right hand side that will be the back right corner of the house.

We have been pretty blessed so far. No bedrock so no blasting. The soil is so good the engineer said we don't need as big of a septic system as originally feared. We have enough fill dirt that we may not need to bring any in to fix the road. The driveway which was pushing a 10% grade in the plan (10% is the limit allowed by the county) is actually more like 7%.
