Lol Carol! Sorry, I was not there when they came, so no photos: ( Sassy, Thanks. I'm glad you are feeling better! Try to not do too much and stay healthy. Moonphase, I wintersowed the seeds for the osteospermum from a trade last winter. It is blooming pretty late, and I'm worried about seeds. They are in a big pot so though it would be a pain, I may bring the pot in and out until I get some seeds. I don't think I can overwinter inside, hmmm...maybe I'll google that! Marie, Thanks! It took me awhile to find seeds in trade. I saw them as potted plants last year in a nursery, and wanted seeds. This year I saw more of them for sale out and about, so I think next year they may be even more available. Remy

Hi Danielle, yes we do this on the same day most of the time... the basement, the garage and the pad for the front porch stair support. If you see in the picture there is a pad for the stair already formed and ready for concrete. If it's a very large basement, the garage and the pad can be done the next day, but if the mason company has 3-4 guys, they will do it in one day. The weather also plays a big role, if it's very hot and humid concrete sets fast, if that the case some companies will stretch it into 2 days. The top of the porch slab is done at the very end, usually when driveway and walkways being done. Good luck

Awesome

We used weathering oil stained cedar shingles. I had mine restained after 6 years. My house is on the coast in Maine.
