Driveway, sidewalk, hardwood floor

The window well covers are completed, as well. They ended up costing us about $500 apiece.

The infamous sidewalk is in. The County really didn't want us to put a sidewalk in: they just wanted the money to spend elsewhere. Given our situation (likely to be pulled into the City), we knew that money was just going to be gone -- so we put in a sidewalk, for less than what the County was going to extort from us anyway.

Oh, yes, here's some more time-reversal. Above: the completed driveway. Below: in progress.


Our Ipe' flooring is done. It looks pretty nice! Our floor-finishing sub was taking photos of it as well -- I think he likes how it turned out, too...


This Friday we will be doing a walk-thru with our contractors, so we really are nearing the end of this part of the project. Then will come the move-in, landscaping, etc. The grounds around the place are a disaster so it will take some work there. We probably will hire some help for assistance on that end.
