April 25, 2005 Rough backfill
April 8, 2005 We are relocating the transformer from the elec pole by the quonset, to the elec pole closest to the road.  Then we will go back and remove 3 extra elec poles by the quonsets.  So today, they dug a trench between the elec pole that stays to the house and the quonset.
April 1, 2005 Our water issue.  Due to the amount of water, we had to put a bed of gravel down before we could poor the footings.
March 30, 2005 Excavation of the basement is finished!! Unfortunately the basement floor was soft & wet soil, so the concrete contractor needed a gravel base established before he could poor the footings.
March 29, 2005 Excavation of the basement continues!!  Hopefully they will finish today, but all that buried concrete sure slows things down.
March 28, 2005 Now for the real ground breaking!!  They only need to dig 4 feet down, but they didn't get very far.  The ditch walls were caving in, so they will be bringing in a bigger excavator tomorrow.
March 28, 2005 Ground Breaking!!  Geoff & Jennifer dig the first shovels from inside the house.
March 28, 2005 Continued work on smoothing slope for the walkout.
September 5, 2004 Using a backhoe, we dug out a buried foundation, and continued scraping dirt  By the end of the day, there was a rough slope of about 4'.
September 4, 2004 Using an elevated scraper, we started scraping dirt to create slope for our walkout basement.  Work was done on the south corner of the property.
