Just a quick snap to record the conditions before work begins on the extension to our garage. This will allow me some room for a small workshop, and make getting Lynda's car into the garage in winter a bit less of a production (or that's how I'm spinning it at least) B-)

The "footprint" of the new section will be where there used to be a kind of makeshift greenhouse, which we have mostly demolished now. Wasn't difficult to take down, being all rotted and badly constructed of odd bits and pieces...

The blank section of the wall here, including the window, will be removed to form the entry into the new area.

Work started today on our garage extension / workshop. Here our contractor, operating the Bobcat, struggles to remove a steel post, one of several that were holding back the railway ties that formed the foundation of the old greenhouse that was here. They finally freed it. It was about four feet into the ground.

Through a magical tube that descends from above, comes enough cement to fill six Bigfoots (Bigfeet?) and six honking Sono tubes. Can framing and siding be far behind?

The garage workshop extension is proceeding well, the walls are up!! They're currently beefing up the support around the area that will be the opening in the existing wall of the garage. Meanwhile, they've left themselves a bit of a doorway at the front.
