| Cavalier Lily's Diary: Backyard Garage Construction(2011/05/13) |
This day last year...
May 13, 2010. |
The backyard is 600m.2.I'm building a garage there.
A friend of mine who's into radio told me to use 'There's always some kind of construction going on at your house.'.
That's right. After this, the caretaker's house and an even larger pigsty are scheduled to be built at the mango farm.
We were finally able to get cars in today.

This is what it looks like from a distance.
The area where the pickup truck is currently parked will be used as a storage area for harvested rice, corn, and other crops. There is parking space for 4 to 5 cars.
My current cars are a Chevrolet Optira, a KIA Bongo truck, and this Suzuki kei truck. A four-year-old Hyundai Starex minivan is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. I was told that if I retrieve another light truck from Kotobato, I can get it for free, so I plan to go and pick it up once things have settled down.

This is a photo taken a little while ago, showing the backyard from the top of the tower. The newly dug well is just barely visible in the lower right.
 |
This is the back entrance gate.
A 2-ton truck entered the area for the first time today, but it had trouble turning because the subdivision road was narrow and the gate was also narrow.
 |
The gate was too narrow for the truck to enter.
There's 150cm of clearance on the office side, so it looks like the pillars and walls will need to be demolished and remodeled.
However, the subdivision road being built by the local government is unlikely to be completed anytime soon, as there are no other houses that would need it, so repairs will probably not be necessary for the time being.
 |
The truck loaded with gravel made several maneuvers to get inside.
 |
This is where we're moving the inconvenient well pump so that cars can access the garage at the back of the house from the parking space beside it. They are tying and lifting the coaxial cable to prevent damage. This man is the plumber who came to help when we built our house before.
He's a true craftsman, and his work is meticulous; he's one of my favorites.
 |
The well pump and pressure tank were relocated.
