Fireplace and Patio Addition

Tim has been working tirelessly on our new addition.
Plans and preparation began in October 2010.
He dug the footer and prepared the foundation for the concrete.An empty slate, literally......The brick masonry workers were wonderful....
It turned out better than we expected!Tim starting the roof..... ....and concrete mantelOur first fire....and of course, smores!Tim put the trusses up, ready for Ted and Cim
to help with the roof....Ted and Cim came down for a weekend
and helped Tim put the roof on...
We thank them so much for all their
hard work and blistered hands!Slowly, Tim has got the shingles on....
Back-breaking work!The grill area with the concrete countertop
that Tim designed and poured has
already been used many times.Every weekend Tim is working to try to complete the job.
He has spent countless hours with lots of sore muscles and joints.
It will be so worth it when it is finally completed!
