"BD" has been here - Concrete blobs


Lots of holes and digging but no treasure found
What shame - Looks like we have to pay for the building costs ourselves.
"DH" missed a perfect opportunity of hiding the whole family in 6 feet of concrete

Dust And Dirt Never Looked better

We got a call from our friendly neighborhood supervisor "L" to take a look at our land.
Guess we never thought that bare earth and dirt would look so good and excite us so much.

Cut and Fill has added extra height - something which we have not realized . This is going to make the house look higher above street level. That sure was a nice surprise.

Also another surprise is the slope all around the house - It is going to be interesting and challenging on getting a good garden going.

As for the brats - all trying to work out where each of their bedrooms would be based on the bare earth outline

3-D Model

This is the 2-D model from builder courtesy "BC"


We hope "BC" does not shoot us for destroying his masterpiece to this......
This is the 3D "DH" has started to create to give us a rough idea of colours and feel of the house.
A note : - A lot of artistic liberties have been taken because of lack of knowledge and not to be confused with the real thing
Main idea is more to place our furniture and give us a feel of space inside the rooms.





"DH" got fed up with "DW" (Guess that's nothing new ) asking a million questions because "DW"'s imagination is atrocious.
