Where once there was a house...

... now there is none.

Just a half hour ago La Machine was turned off and Big Guy stepped down form his perch declaring this lot... CLEAR!

I'm in shock. A job that we were told would take two days, then seemed endless as work started and stalled on an hourly basis every day, is finally done. It took 14 days. But we now have a clear, flat lot. Big Pine still needs to come down. But with the house finally gone, they can now come in and do their job.

There's more to say about this process (well, bitch about really), but I think I'll save that for later and right now, I will celebrate.

No champagne in the house, wine will have to do!
Cheers.

  2. Anika...they didn't take a lunch break!?!?! Are you serious?!?! Did you notice if they dug out the foundation? Dave and I are a wee concerned that they just filled it in and when we dig in the spring we'll be dealing with the old basement debris still.
