Cara texted this past weekend and wants to meet to show us the concept plan for the landscaping at Mar Azul this coming weekend.
YEAH! That will be super fun and something exciting.
In the meantime, I took pix of the exterior and the lot so she can see how things are progressing and look at them against her concepts before we meet. Can’t wait to see what she’s put together and if we can do it ?
Friday we did our usual drive by the lot after the school bus comes and this week it was FUNNNNNNY. Normally nobody working says anything to us. We pull up and take a pix and go on our way. But on Friday one of the guys walked over to the car window and stared at me.
I rolled down the window and he said “Can I help you?”
I let him know I was the owner and just driving by to see what was happening.
He proceeded to tell me a hysterical story about him and his guys building the keystone wall and how he built it wrong and Jack yelled at him, so he had to fix it all that morning, but that it was OK because it was really his fault and Jack just called him out. He promised he would have it all complete by end of day. No biggie to me, I have no idea what the schedule is, or who this guy is, or what he’s supposed to be doing. But it sure was funny how worked up he was + kept on talking!!!
The girls were all bored out, so we cruised on home.
Then we came back Saturday late afternoon so we could take a quick walk around and look at the wall up close + walk more around the house and see all the block going up. Its finally resembling a house!! The backyard still looks a little sketchy like there’s too much dirt and we’re going to have a mudslide if it rains. The side with the keystone wall looks awesome, except we stare straight into our neighbors back yard and house — SORRY REGGIE + MELISSA!!
Super curious how this will all look when its finished and ready to move in. Only about 12 more months to go. ?
More progress @ Mar Azul this week. Looks like the survey guys were out again, the lot is graded and marked. Not sure what the right words are for it, but it sure looks like the little flags, wood and string are all showing the footprint of the house.
And of course much more fun to visit the lot now because the girls can see we are really working on a house ? and they can play in the dirt.
