My honey was cutting the grass at the lot while I was enjoying a coconut when a old woman was passing through the jungle and she yelled at me "you should be hung having your wife cut the grass like that" I told her she should buy a lottery ticket because she was good at guessing

 

Another update walls are up window and door headers are done ready for the tie beam and septic tank is being dug 7ft deep

 

This looks great!

 

Latest pics it is starting to look like a house all the rooms are back filled and they are going to start forming window frames and door frames all concrete termite proof home is the goal the last pic is the view from bedroom window

 

Looking good

I would recommend going with wooden door jams...I went with concrete for the same reason and have had wind catch 2 doors and blew out everything around the hinges. Just my opinion of course.

Shawn i took note and ordered the wood frames for the doors thank you much for your input.

 

Good to hear, not using wood door jams rank up near the top of the lessons learned when we built our house.
