Renovations a dream come true for Under the Stump!

The roof is up and the shingles are on the storage space! There is still much work to do before we can start the welcome space! It has been a long time coming to get to this point. Needless to say we are excited to see the progress that has been happening with the renovations at Under the Stump to make a dream come true.

I was wondering how would they ever take out a garage door and put in a steel door! How to fill in such a big space. Well I guess they knew what they were doing. The renovations is starting to take shape at Under the Stump.

WOW all done! No rain can pour in through the roof now! Imagine a garage transforming into a storage space and welcome center for Under the Stump. This is a dream come true!

It's another noisy day at Under the Stump as the concrete truck pours the concrete. The men are working hard to spread the concrete and level it to the appropiate depth.




This is such a cool piece of equipment designed to level the concrete and create a even floor surface. The equipment they called a helicoper and that's kind of what is was like! Now we have to wait for a few days of drying before the project can continue. A concrete floor of perfection!
