Augusta Project: The Blog!: February 2010
http://augustaproject.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Between holidays, deathblizzards and work, winter 2010 has been a busy but beautiful one here at R Michael Cross Design Group. Much has happened at Augusta Ave. since our last post in. November? Oh man. Well, I think I'd like to break it down into a few not-so-chronological parts. The main developments in the construction process have been:. The installation of plumbing work. The installation of electrical work. Big strong men are slinging up sheets of drywall and bellowing. AS I TYPE THESE VERY WORDS.
