The Making of a New Entryway, Part 1

The organization of our house is a little strange as you have to walk all the way around it to the back to enter through the front door. That just makes no sense so part of the remodel includes adding a new entryway to the front of the house.

To the left is the current entryway and to the right is the natural front of the house with the deck visible. 

First thing first. Dig a big hole. Where do you think some of the rocks seen earlier came from?

Then you create the foundation.

The window will become the door into the house from the new entryway. 

Each night when I returned home from work I would find Skip hard at work. 

As we are still waiting for the doors and windows to arrive, it is time to give the front a break and attack the back!
