Day 27-30

The project is falling behind again. This time it’s due to the foundation engineer (Jerry Garcia—yet another fun name) being on vacation. He has to check the work that's been done before the foundation can be poured. My contractor is hopeful they’ll pour on Monday. He’s not too pleased the project has fallen behind, but I’m happy he let us know this morning (Day 28) that they will not pour the foundation today.

I said I’d report back on how things went when I told Jason and Lindsay the alley is not theirs. Fortunately Lindsay answered the door. I say that because Jason tends to talk quite a bit and I imagine we would have had to have had a much longer discussion. Lindsay was very gracious about the whole thing. I explained to her what we were told, gave her a printout of the plat similar to what I put in the previous post, and hopefully that will be the end of the alley ownership dispute.

I moved the banana tree so it wouldn’t hide things in the progress photos. The wooden blocks are still in the way, but hopefully those will be gone in a couple weeks. Here’s where things are as of Day 28.

It doesn't look like anything's changed, does it.
