1st Inspection Prep

An update. We spent much of the last 3 days bailing out hundreds of gallons of water from the center pads, while the perimeter trench dries out after a weekend of heavy rains. This is probably the most discouraged I've been, and Julie had to bouy up my spirits as we got absolutely covered in mud, while we removed the plastic sheeting covering the footer trench--we guess it must have kept at least some of the water out, but not much.


We also finished the rebar, fixed up a few small areas, and just generally have tried to make it as pretty as possible for the codes inspector, who's coming tomorrow at 9.

We'll let you know how it goes!
