The sun setting on the lot. Outline of the house has been scraped into the turf.
The ground has officially been broken with the installation of a silt fence. This fence prevents runoff from the construction site into the street and storm sewer.
The future homeowners celebrating the ground breaking with a bottle of champagne. While evening walkers gave them strange looks upon first glance, they were able to meet a few future neighbors.
The Bobcat used for breaking ground and installing the sill fence. In the background, Ty and Deb’s 2001 Honda Insight. This house is ready for the next step in automotive efficiency; a plug-in hybrid. Hopefully GM will keep their deadlines so a Chevy Volt will beparked in the drive come next fall.
