Trilobite

On Thursday the contractors dug the foundation for the house and built a new driveway. They have been having trouble with people parking in front of the house and blocking their way in, so they made a no parking zone.

I asked the guy on the tractor about the birch tree, and he said it doesn’t need to be cut down. It’s roots were damaged during the digging, so I hope it survives. Gisele’s garden is doing okay.

Yesterday they started building the framework to pour the concrete into, and by this morning it was finished [garage, front, back].

The other day a bunch of the nosy neighbours were gathered in front of the house on the sidewalk. One of them was even drinking a beer. The guy with the beautiful front lawn sent Celine’s parents an email complaining that he only wants construction to occur between 8am and 5pm on weekdays.
