It has been off and on raining.
It seemed a wicked pace - getting the slab in. And then the plumber wanting to do his work. But that is how it is. They each need to be in and out so the next part can be done.
But now it is raining, and we can take a breather - rather, get more prepared for the next rush.
The garage has it's earth tubes in place, and the slab poured. And we are in the process of raising the steel arches. Also being done at the same time, is installing french drains. And then, putting up a facade - front wall to the garage. We want to keep the garage progressing ahead of the house, so we can learn and do better in building the house.
On the house, the plumber came and learned about our project, and we learned a little about plumbing and how they will be installing the pipes. They will be helping us install our earth pipes. The house has 13 earth tubes that go in the slab. And they have to be done prior to the plumbing pipes. So, we are trying to pinpoint where they are going to be. The plumber will be back to work with us on this on Monday and actually put them in the ground!
We also have ordered lots of building materials and have piles of it around the site - organized.
