Our Future Home - Steeldust Meadows

These are pictures from July 2009. Now that the excavation has been dug, we spend the month setting up forms for the footings. It's a pretty complicated foundation so is going to take a while. We also get a load of rebar.

July 1st, 2009 - Now that we have a foundation permit we also get an address from Rockyview County.
