12-24-00: Here is the final slab. They are still cleaning things up a bit. It looks like they have made 2 more errors. 1) They left a tire bump in the garage - it was supposed to be deleted. 2) Limestone to ground is supposed to be no more than 24 inches, but they have many, many places where it will be 30 to 36 inches. |

12-20-00 This is a picture of the trenches they are digging. These trenches will be under the slab after it is poured. The trenches are poured 8 foot walls of solid cement that go below the ground level. On top there are steel braided ropes running in a grid pattern -- these will be inside the slab. |

12-14-00: They are truly slow, not much happening. They have already messed up on the foundation, by making the slap 2 to 3 feet higher off the ground then originally planned. |

This picture shows the patio, which has a form around it, so that our back porch/patio will be 4 inches lower. |
