Day 650: The break up

The first order of business for Week 2 was to get rid of the scaffolding. But not before I had a chance to climb up it and explore the work, tidy up some wires and clear out the gutters. Hey might as well make the best of it while it was up. And besides, what kind of builder would I be if I have never worked on scaffolding before.



























I thought the scaffolding went up fast – but it went down even faster – the guys showed up and the scaffolding seemed to just disappear. 

After everything was taken down, Michael and the boys came back with some big, heavy/noisy tools. The ol’ jack hammer made short work of the pavement out front of the house. In reality, this had pretty much self-broken for them already.

With the old rubble out of the way, on went the new sub base for the driveway and walkway. It was compacted down and ready to go - but first we needed to do some plumbing ...
