May snow

We have had some wintry weather here in Flagstaff the past two days. The peaks are all snowy and it was actually snowing/sleeting at the lot today while they were working. But at least everything dries out quickly here, so no slowing down construction. The good news is that the excavation progress looks great! The hole is about a foot below finished floor height almost everywhere now. They have a few more spots to clean out further and then trenches to dig for the footers. Hopefully the footers will go in this week and then time to build up the block walls.

Measuring and marking the footer locations.


The deepest corner back in the back of the garage needs a little more digging.


Lining up the back retaining wall and bump out for the stairs (a little more digging required).


Some of the dirt that is being saved for back fill later. Notice the peaks are covered in clouds and it's snowing... you never know what you'll get in Flagstaff!
