Building Update #13 - Ready to Start Framing

Jake and his intermittent assistants have spent the last week and a half since pouring concrete finishing up the rest of the foundation details - forming up and pouring concrete for our house main and back door entries, digging a trench for and installing the foundation drain, applying perimeter insulation ("frost skirt"), and then covering up everything with crushed stone.  We never imagined how much shoveling would be involved!

Our front door slab formed up.

Our back door slab formed up.

The front door entry finished concrete with frost skirt in place.

The frost skirt covered with rocks.  The dog did not assist at all.
