Cellar hole is in!

We lucked out on weather this week. Tuesday, we saw some rain, as well as Wednesday afternoon and night. However, Thursday and Friday both saw clear blue skies and temps 65-75. WOW! Our Excavator has been busy, getting the base in for the driveway, which looks very good, as well as digging out the cellar hole! So far we are on track, although I am a bit concerned about a 'hump' of ledge in the southeast corner.... This may need to be blasted, I'll check with Brent over the weekend-- That could put us behind, unless we can find a work- around.

Also, the cutting for our power-line looks good as well, and is about 2/3 complete. I would expect that one more solid day of work could take care of it, then some cleanup. I may need to chip some of the downed wood, or at least move it so the power company can pull the wire through the cleared lane. Next week, I'll need to call Verizon about getting phone service. That will take a long time, but if we don't have it by the time the house is complete, it's not the end of the world. That's what cell phones are for.

This weekend, I'll be doing some brush cleanup and skidding some logs so Brent can finish the end of our driveway. Loralee is heading to Maine to visit her friend Chris and finish working on her wedding dress.
