Day 49-52 - site cleanup and prep

The plastic went on in good time and seems to be working well to protect the wood floor slab.
While Bruce was in Dublin for a long weekend, Pat kept busy on site and off site. The edge of the plastic that hung down from the floor slab was trimmed back to allow air movement under the slab and to prevent the plastic gettign in the way of future building.



Some of the corners of the plastic were ripping on the sharp edge of the OSB board and these needed to be strengthened with tape.

Pat also spent a fair amount of time cleaning up the area around the house, including removing the stones that we had raked out from under the slab and others that would otherwise get in the way.

He also transported a lot of wood from his various storage places around the country, and cut up a load of off-cut wood into laths which will be used in the exterior plaster of the houses.
