Crawl space? More like a walk space. hi-oh!
Once the lot was cleared to start digging, we got a better idea of the elevation issues with the lot. The back of the lot is lower than the front, which is ideal, but the amount of drop-off on the back right of the lot forced us to have a bigger foundation than we planned. We could have opted for a basement, but we decided to add a storage room underneath the house. You can see this in the back of the first picture and the bottom of the second picture. The storage room will be nice for, well you know, storing stuff. It will come in handy, we're sure.
From this stage it took, due to a minor snag, roughly three weeks to finish the floor. And just to remind you, because we are backtracking, that's already happened. Those pictures are soon to follow so everyone hold your breath.
