still waiting...

It's frustrating to think that I have been here in Campbell River since early November to build a house and we haven't even broken the ground! Delay after delay we hoped to have had the impeding trailer moved by now, but as it stands we plan to have it demolished next Thursday. Unfortunately, I will still be in Tofino that day so I'll miss the excitement (and the video op), but fortunately I'll be in Tofino. I was hoping to have the foundation in before the holidays but it looks like that won't get done until into the New Year. Luckily, for both me and my dad, I have been busy in his shop building such things as the coffee stand for City Hall and the oil-spill shed for the TimberWest Mill as shown in the photos.

Still waiting...

I'm back in Campbell River and we are still waiting to get the trailer moved off the property so we can start building! It turns out there is too much red tape to get through (and $$ to spend) to try and salvage the trailer so we are going to junk it. We still have to wait for the bank to 'release' it so we can destroy it then get going with the excavation. In the mean time I am working for my dad building cabinets and helping him tie up the many loose ends he has going these days.
Last weekend was nice, I met up with Kelly in Tofino for a really nice wedding her good friend had on the beach, and we also got to spend time with my sister Sarah and her family. It was a good weekend.
