Windows, Doors, and Arches; The House Is Coming Along

I showed up today to find the excavator moving dirt up to the foundation of the house.

The garage doors have been installed, along with all of the outside doors.  Wasn't a fan of the funny maze of tiny windows here, but that's what happens when you let someone not completely schooled in style and design, order garage doors.  I thought, "no problem, we'll just take out the grid panel".  Well, turns out it is a problem, so they stay.  Oh well.  We have garage doors!  Yahooooo!  

I like the look of work being done, so here's another angle of that backhoe moving dirt.

Oh, here's my favorite thing right now.  Ron built a mock-up of the entryway arch, and I love it!

Mock-up materials, just because . . . .

Entryway from the front door.

And, one more shot, through the crab apple tree.  That tree is starting to show evidence of fall.  I love that too.

And that's about it, for now.  Ron is working on electrical after working on rough plumbing, so there's not that much to show yet.  It's all coming along quite nicely though.  Thank you, all, for stopping by again.  Love ya.  Have a great Autumn!
