Excitement at Shadow’s Rest – August Update

Front Porch coming down

So much work has gotten done on this old farmhouse in only a months time. Special thanks to Larry and several of our wonderful volunteers, Jenny, Phyllis,(who drives all the way from Birmingham), Kim, Christina, Donna, Patti, Angela & Emily who have been working so hard, finding extra time to come and work on this project, helping to accomplish so much!
So far we have filled over three construction dumpsters with debris and one large Pod with items to save.  The back laundry and mud room have been removed.  The old 40′ well has been filled.  The Front Porch has been removed, and many room inside have been cleaned out.

 
 

Alabama Foundation Specialists began their work today.

 Today, Alabama Foundation Specialists arrived to begin restoring the foundaiton.  Today they worked on shoring up the house in preperation to begin jacking up the house in order to pour the new foundation.  The whole project will take almost two weeks to complete.  A tough job we for sure needed experts to handle.
 
The dogs kept a watchful eye making sure the job was being done right!
