DAY 8- Footings are Started

The daily progress isn't so rapid, now that the excavation is temporarily completed. With all that dirt moving, the landscape became a moonscape in a very rapid time frame. The excavators will come back for backfill once the footings have cured.
The guys re-marked the footing lines and started building the frames for the concrete.

The plumber came and put in an outside spigot for water (here goes our water bill), and Craig put in an  electrical outlet on its own circuit for the construction workers to use (here goes the PG&E bill).

Form building will continue through next week, then await the county inspector to okay the forms before the concrete is poured. The house next door isn't really as close as it looks here.
