Front end of the foundation

Front end of the foundation, originally uploaded by tewold.

Once the forms are removed and the concrete cures, the house can be built. Notice the little metal studs sticking up all around the edge of the foundation. These will anchor the "plates", that is, the boards laid flat to support the outer walls of the house.
In the foreground is an enormous mushroom which was unearthed during the excavation of the site. It's apparently not edible. What do you think can be done with it?
