Thanks to some rain, things are more or less on hold which I think help reconcile a problem. I have to say sincere thanks to the contractor for being patient with me, for coming out on this wet night to help put my mind at ease and helping put things right. One of the things that was concerning me was when the masons put in the form for the garage slab, they ended up moving the front end of the garage up about 4-6 inches (depending your measurements). This took the garage front out of alignment with the existing sidewalk I have at the back of the house and cut into a rock garden that is in the back of the house. After some measuring and some double checking it looks like the side that was too far forward was a couple inches long, but the opposite side was just the right size. So the contractor is going to look into get things squared up and moved back, to make things better in the long run. As he put it, if you hate it now you will hate it more later, it is better to fix it now than hate it the rest of the time you have it. So tomorrow I might have some more pictures up and an update on the "Garage 2013" book.
On another note, after playing around with another blog site that I have, that I update less frequently than this one, I figured I would play with some social links. Not sure if they will do much and I might get rid of them if they become a bother, but might make things more interesting in any case. I also been working on a way to add my tweets to the site, but so far I am having difficulty getting it added, but with luck it will post on Twitter that I created a new blog post.
