They're Pouring the Cement

Check it!

 

And the bathroom!

 The bathroom window, sans bathroom (nice and sunny Ann?)

And Owen, showing how he can walk through a door sideways.

(This is the door going out to the bathroom, and the rest of the apartment)

The view from the outside

 

Look how lovely it is around the back.

Here's the view to the BIG house

 And a new window to replace the barn doors

And on the inside?

 From this....

to this!

Look! The cladding is going up

Ah, Owen and Chris make it look so easy!

The room and windows are beginning to take shape

 

How good is this window??

What a lovely big room, hey Kez?

It's starting to look like a NEW ROOM!

What?! I go inside for one day - and the pile of wood turns into the beginnings of a room!

The wood structure arrived today

No rest for Owen and Chris! Trucks and materials arriving. Looks like a pile of wood now - but tomorrow? May be something else entirely.

Arielle is helping dig trenches

Arielle is helping the plumber (re)dig his trenches. What a clever dog!

And now, we wait.....

And now we wait 3 wet weeks for the cement to cure....

This is before the concrete slab

The new space is marked out, all ready for the plumbing and the concrete slab.

This is the room before it becomes an apartment

Watch this space. It's gonna get better!

Owen, Chris and Trevor don't seem too concerned

 

Owen, Chris and Trevor say all this destrustruction will be worth it

We're doing renovations again! Look what they've done to the garden!

We got up this morning and everything had changed......
