Need Mud?
The Yard is Now One Big Mud Pile
The Stone Wall base is under the Black Plastic Wrap. This helps
to keep the Water Out so that it won't collect and Freeze under the Base
The New Side Patio will be Going Above It
The Weather has Taken a Break Long Enough to Start the Side Porch

We'll need to Bring in more Gravel for the Side Patio to Raise the Grade

If you’ve
ever been in a hurricane and you have had the eye pass over you, you get to see
the most amazing thing. The winds stop and the fury turns to calm and the
clouds open up to an amazing (and
welcomed) blue sky. It looks like a perfect afternoon. Of course that is until
the other side of the storm hits.
I’m feeling
like that with this winter. We’ve had days of single digit temps causing pipes to freeze and where it
actually hurt to go outside along with a snow storm that
dumped a foot of snow. Roads have had black ice in the morning making the drive
to work interesting.
Until this week.
Temps have been as high as the 50’s and other than some rain here and there turning
everything to foot deep mud, it’s been pretty nice. I think it must be the Eye
of Winter. And while I’m sure the other side of winter is coming, the builders
are taking advantage of the better weather and are working on the porches and
back deck. The mason is back on site too. I’m not sure how long this weather is
going to last, but unlike normal where we complain about the weather, we’re not
doing any of that. Now if could I just get the sun to stay out later so I could
get some after work pictures…
Enjoy your
weekend.
Go Patriots!
