Tales From the Box

A story of a beach house in the Blue Mountains

By the way – we are renovating our house…

BRDAY + 20

the box parking lot

If the neighbours were slightly confused with the banging and general wash of noise echoing from our property, this morning they were left in no doubts as to the happenings in and around The Box.

Monday saw some 10 different tradies on site doing everything from bathroom work, demo, framing, pouring concrete, rewiring power, plumbing both inside and outside the house. Thus all adjacent roads and footpaths became a parking lot in the middle of the day.

At the end of the day – all one could do was marvel at how far things had come in such a short period…and how much mess had been created in the process.
