April Summary

Went up north last weekend and with help got the site prepped for the foundation.   Met with power company and contractors. Foundation work is underway and should be finished up in a week or so.  

Rained and snowed, but here is a short clip of the site from the day I left it.  Got a nice Canon video camera now, so you might not get nauseous trying to watch  this one.

Opening the site

First trip for 2010 next weekend. Heading up Thursday night to meet National Grid on Friday, as well as contractor(s) too about foundation and shell. Other tasks for this trip in order of importance:

• Set up strings over the perimeter showing where foundation wall gets placed.
• Set strings for porch and center line piers
• Drill holes for rebar 
• Chisel rock to 3 in 12
• Build forms for footers using scribed plywood 
• Build 2x4 staging platforms for logs
