The story behind the name

I have always loved sea glass because of the beautiful green, blue and brown hues that are made even more breathtaking when they are tossed in the water. I am also drawn to pretty glass bottles, especially those with unique shapes, textures or stories. When we purchased our land, it had lot of garbage where our driveway now sits. Included in this garbage were lots of glass bottles in all different shapes, sizes and colors. As unappealing as this may sound, there have been many beautiful and unique glass bottles found at the property. While we obviously do not want to drive on a green glass road, the road itself was only made possible after lots of green glass was recovered. So therin lies the story behind the name of the Adventures at Green Glass Road.

It's amazing how 13 yards of concrete can make someone so happy!

So, just a quick update on the progress this week with the house… We finally got to the point that our building inspector let us pour the additional footers this morning. A big thanks to our wonderful professional engineer who helped us navigate that process! We were definitely watching the weather maps this week with great anticipation that we would be able to do the pour before a bunch of rain came through again. Thankfully, even though it rained this morning during the pour, it was light enough that they could get them all done. We have been watching major rain come down where we currently live today so we are thankful that just a little bit of distance, made a huge difference today! The weekend weather also looks good, so the blocklayers should be able to finish up their work on Sunday. We hope to have some exciting progress pictures at the end of the weekend for everyone.
