smart move straightening out the stone retaining wall now rather than after the driveway is in. sooner or later the wall was going to tattoo one of your cars. the plan to put the lift in the bay forward of the tree seemed a bit awkward. did you relocate and save the tree?

try Liquinox B-1 transplant solution as per the instructions. a light pruning of any dead branches. set up a soaker hose and place it around the root ball perimeter to the drip line and 2-3 inches of some sort of mulch over the the surface. DEEP water to keep the roots from trying to surface to find water. give the tree a fighting chance.

Slow progress (more on the house), but drywall went up today.

Make sure that the sealed deck above your garage is 110% water proofed.
Get a reputable deck contractor/waterproofer. Don't let your GC talk you into the carpenter or roofer doing your deck prep/coatings/ flashing/ counter-flashing. Been there done that, not only are water leaks annoying on the cars below...the hidden water damage to the wood structure is hella dangerous (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Great new crib , enjoy it !

Making very nice progress.
I remember in my last house having a 21 yard concrete driveway poured, exposed aggregate with a brick border. I got 23 years out of that before we sold that house. In my new (old) house I am going to go with stamped concrete for the driveway, patio, walkways, etc. That is probably still 2 years out as we finish up the inside and then remodel the garage after the inside. I can't wait for the garage! My Six will need a nice place to live. |

That's a large amount of flat work! Looks like your house is in a beautiful area. Once the walls get covered things tend to speed up. Makes everybody happy.
