Backfilling – Ready for Framing

This week saw a bunch of rain again, but after letting the walls harden for a week, we were able to backfill the foundation. Also filled and compacted the under the garage and patio floors.

We took out a clump of birch trees on the hill in front of the basement window, and were able to level a very nice area behind the house; we will actually have a nicer backyard than we originally planned.

Pam, Barry and I then installed new silt fencing along the lake side and west side to keep soil erosion under control.

Finally, Menard delivered the floor trusses, and the first batch of framing materials. Framing starts Monday Morning!!
