This and that . . . and retaining wall and stairway . . . July















More July updates. . .

Just taking note of work being done/needed. . .








Yes, the beams are being removed right now!

First the east and west beams are hooked up and removed to a waiting truck. . .







Then the north and south beams are removed. Almost not enough room in the park next door to manipulate the machinery!




One last photo with the beams removed and the house sitting on the foundation.

BEAM removal day!!!!!!!!!!!





YUP! It's a new day and the beans are still there.

View all around after long day. . .





This is how the Kiggins House looked after the beams were all lowered into the "window cells." Tomorrow, the beams will be removed.

Beams Removal Prep. . . finally!





Ok so this did happen yesterday but it is related to the beam removal so am placing it here. See how the beams went right into the "window wells" when they were gradually lowered?

End of working day clue. . .


I had arrived early, saw all the vehicles and workers arrive after me and now it was the end of the working day and the beams were still not removed! It would be another exciting day tomorrow! At least, I had a clue as to how it was going to be done.
