Thanks to the efforts of over 450 firefighters from as far away as Canada and New Mexico, the Ola Complex fires have been put out, and things have pretty much returned to normal.
Susan and I completed the three wire fence on the eastern side of the property, and progress has been made on the shop construction. The footing for the stem walls has been poured, and the forms for the stem walls are in place. The walls are scheduled to be poured tomorrow. They will then have to set for a few days before we can backfill and compact the dirt in preparation for the floor to be poured. We anticipate that the dirtwork will be finished by the end of the week, and that the floor will be poured either this weekend or early next week. In anticipation of this, I called to have the shop components delivered on the 15th. They informed me that unless someone else canceled, they were about four weeks out for deliveries.
Either date will work, because we will be working on getting the footings and foundation for the house poured and waterproofed, French drains installed, then backfilled and compacted. Whatever happens, there will be plenty to keep us busy.
