We will have pictures up soon but work is underway.

The hole for the basement and drainage trench were dug last week. This week we had the footings formed and poured and drainage system established just before the rain yesterday. The walls will be formed and poured hopefully this Friday. After that its giving the walls some extra protection and backfilling. Then its the hard part - building the wall next to the existing footings of the house.

The pond began to be dug last Sunday, but was delayed after about 4 hrs due to wet soil conditions. Work will resume this coming weekend. It looked like brownie batter and the bulldozer started to get stuck, so we decided to wait for it to dry more.
