December 9, Yard Grading:

Dirt was excavated from the foundation area and a lot of dirt had to be removed from the
driveway and front yard areas. This dirt was used to build up and level the back and sides.

Driveway and sidewalks framed:
Driveway and sidewalks poured:

Notice that the driveway is the full width of the garage. Other builders were going to make the driveway the width of the door and some, smaller than that and then flare out to the width of the door.

Not only did Buss give Judy a full-width driveway, but he took care to shape it so that rain water on the steep driveway would run off to the side instead of into the garage. He also threw in a sidewalk around the right side of the garage to where a walk-in door goes into the garage.
