Foundation Walls

Our yard was full of pick up trucks again today.  When Berne measured again this morning, he discovered that the wall between the living room and playroom is not square to the exterior wall.  In a 150 year old house, this is not surprising.  He is going to construct the new wall square and tweak the existing wall with tapered framing to make it less noticeable.  Paul and his team built the foundation wall framing before lunch.

The concrete delivery was a couple of hours late.  If it had only been ten minutes later, Alistair and Charlotte could have seen them pour the foundation walls, but they just saw the very end.

 (and Evelyn and I missed it since we were at the bus stop picking up Alistair and Charlotte)

Alistair did get to watch Paul's guys fill the low knee walls and attempt to inject concrete in the forms along the brick foundation walls.  (He took some of these pictures as well as some video.)  There was concrete everywhere, but Paul said that it would clean up easily tomorrow.
