Let me know if ya see em.  (tried to re-post using a different way from yahoo-let me know)




digging hole




pouring cement


More or less finished interior


Finished exterior-which i did too Siding/facia/eaves  doing the deck this year



was alot of work, but worth it.  Estimated around 45k to finish-not including new basement area which (will)add a bedroom/office and bathroom.  Taxes went up 1K they said the value of the house went up 120k (more than I paid for the original)

notes:
1. Pella windows/sliders SUCK
2. Multilook (Uniboard) SUCKS worse
3. Menards wood sucks x infinity x eleventeen

No REAL prior My dad did ALOT, he recently built his retirement house.  The drain was just to get the water away from the basement- will be modified when the deck is built
