While I (Jyll) was in Nashville at a conference this week, the landscape of the property changed dramatically! On Monday and Tuesday (May 18-19), the basement was dug as well as the areas required by the garage for footers.

John shared pictures via Dropbox and walked me through them. Enjoy the slideshow!

It took a bit over three hours to stake each corner of the house that will need to be excavated. We also marked retaining walls and walk-out locations.
