A beautiful day, a
momentous day, and an overall up-and-down day. The day began with the final bit
of chipping—no, not tricky golf shots from the rough. See yesterday’s entry for
specifics. Once that was done, I was
awaiting the BIG delivery of our lumber. To pass the time, I decided to clear
the water out of the foundation in preparation for tomorrow’s pouring of the
floor. I had laid a tarp down over our radiant tubing and insulation, and it
did a good job of keeping the rain out of our foundation. A very good job. A 67 gallon good job. Yes, I spent some
quality time with a 4-cup measuring scoop, a 5-gallon bucket, and 67 gallons of
rainwater. I took no pictures of this endeavor, as I have no wish to remember
it. All in all, it was worth it, as our foundation is predominantly dry and
ready for a floor to be poured.
