From now on, please check our project updates from: ddbyss.blogspot.com Thanks! http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/07/15/our-new-blog-site/ Today we moved the small white shed that was existing on the property when it was purchased.  We had examined the shed a number of times, but because it was built on a rather steep hillside we had concerns about it moving us rather than us moving it!    Bill Brown had ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/06/11/existing-shed-gets-new-home/ Today we are expecting J.W., the tree mover guy, to help us relocate some of the larger items that we’d like to keep.  He will be on site for one day, and we will move as many items as reasonable within one day.  If possible, we’ll even have him spade ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/06/10/66/ We have another beautiful hue to add to our safety yellow – tractor orange.  Isn’t it lovely?!  We are going for an industrial look this season, so it would be amiss of me to leave out the basic black of the protective fencing or the rusty brown of the rebar.  ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/06/09/the-colors-of-summer/ Finally!  We have silt fence!  I can’t tell you how pleased we are to finally have evident work at the job site.  I’m sure we’ll grow tired of the lovely safety-orange hue, but right now it is my new favorite color!    On Monday Robert will begin work on our construction entrance.  Hopefully ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/05/16/orange-is-in/ The waiting game left me little to write about.  Most of my work consisted of detailed drawings and research.  Both of which become incredibly tedious in writing.  But, good news!  Our long wait is over!! All of our permits have been approved and last week we had our pre-construction meeting.  ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/05/12/progress-3/ April is flying by and we still haven’t broken ground.  The wheels of government turn slowly, and all we can do is try to be prepared for the next step.  After we get Lillie’s Pad approved, we will be ready to begin grading.  We have three bids for the pool ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/04/21/moving-slowly/ Finally!  The kids are back in school, and my work has returned to normal.  Not that it is a finely tuned machine, but my system works for me.   Here is the update.  The revised plans were submitted to the City on Wednesday of last week.  I will request a plan from ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/04/14/its-all-connected/ I can’t believe that four days have passed since I last blogged!  It is Spring Break week here so both kids are out of school, but the project is still whipping along.  The revised plat has been approved.  We have made the necessary changes to the site plan, and I ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/04/08/49/ Yesterday I was so busy taking care of business that I didn’t have time to update you.  Here’s what took place.  The Mylar copy arrived.  (For those of you outside of the design world – Mylar is a thick, translucent product that is used to reproduce images upon which additional ... http://interiordd.com/blog1/2008/04/04/taking-strides/
