April 16th--Demo and rebar



Todd got the footers ready for the first pour tomorrow (we passed inspection on Wed)--the sun has finally come out and the dryness is helpful.  On the middle photo you can see how he has supported the bottom of the footer above the cistern (with plywood supported by the existing house), at right is a view down into the cistern.

On the bottom is a view of my kitchen!  The whole house is a skeleton.  I don't think I was really aware that the house was essentially going to be gone (all but the floor!) but that's what's happening.  Lots of trash to get to the dumpster that is attractively nestled on our lawn.  Fortunately the downstairs loo is still operable--I couldn't face the trek upstairs at 3 am.  And 4 am.
