October 25 - So We Wait...

For those of you who live in Winnipeg, you will understand why there haven't been any pictures in the last few days. For those of you who don't live here, let me explain...
It has been raining off and on for the last 2 weeks and the last few days have been the worse. This being said, work has kinda stopped due to the slippery, soft mud & puddles.
Actually today we had rain and wet flurries...just wonderful.
On Tuesday they did manage to get the piles in for the back deck, front veranda and garage but when the truck showed up to drill our well he quickly left as he started to sink when he drove off of the driveway. So, as Marshall said, it was Christmas Day...No well! (get it, Noel) I know bad humour but we need something to chuckle about.
Yesterday most of the sheeting went up.
Now we need to get some backfill in and build up the garage about 4' so the concrete guy can form the grade beam and the garage can be built. The problem is, until it dries up (or freezes) no big trucks can get in to complete this next step.
When we get out there over the weekend I will take some pictures of the sheeted house and piles and post them.
So we wait...
