Footers Day 1

Today the foundation crew started. Gary spent this morning trying to pick up some more of the saw dust and tree shavings to put into the burn pile. Marshmallows anyone? I'll make sure to let you know when we are going to dispose of the pile so you can watch for the signal lights!!

Jesse really likes going to ground. Most of you know that he is fearless. When the tractor was here, he hopped into the bucket to see what was in it. This evening he got down into the trenches to see where they went. He is such an intrepid explorer.

House, Before & After

Weekend Fun

The weekend has come and gone and seen much action here. Friday, it was decided that a large tree stump and another tree needed to go. So my man of action was working the tractor/backhoe. He and Dave pulled out the stump and did a lot of other work in the yard. We spent today loading up tree roots and cut up tree into the tractor bucket and dumping it onto the burn pile. Isn't it nice to live in the country?! The yard looks so naked. Did I mention how HOT the sun is now that there are no large shade trees in the middle of the yard? I believe in global warming now. In the absence of trees only!
