Day 101
Nothing going up or coming down today.
the reason for yesterdays demolition... Apparently the Previous Bricklaying company Built the Front Entry Wall wrong and not to what was on the plans, so they had to bring it down to build it correctly.
a disapointing week as far as progress goes.

Day 100
As we Crack the 100 days of construction the house took a major step backwards, i do not know the reasons why but the front wall around the entry and the door were removed (or torn down) leaving large piles of rubble on the front yard... a very large disapointment.
