Plumbing in first floor

October  14, 2003

After getting the dirt floor all cleaned up and smooth, the plumbers come in and make it all messy again. Dave's Plumbing sent Daryl and Bill to put in our first floor plumbing.

They did a great job with plumbing supplies from Noland.   We also had some labor helpers to speed up the digging, that's Jose and Jimmy doing some digging. We dug the footing for the theatre walls that support the second floor and also dug the footing for the stairway stemwall.   This is the scariest time, you have to feel confident in your decisions because it will all be covered by concrete.
