8.27.2022

 Jim had to finish up all the flashing on this final back corner connection...


Putting in the last of the fasteners...


Besides grading, the construction of the pole barn lean to is done!  I love the way it looks and it's going to be so helpful to Jim to store tools he doesn't need often.


After putting some tools away that he won't need now, Jim brought the Bobcat up to the top of the hill and then started up the excavator.  After marking our eventual driveway lines the other day, Jim started digging.  He wants the driveway to be flat from the area of the pavilion spot on back.


Once he got a big swath dug, he used the Bobcat to scoop up the dirt...


Then he brought it over to the side of the yard and dumped it.  Jim had used the excavator to pick out some really big rocks, so I just picked out any other larger ones from the pile...


That's a lot of dirt he removed!


And it made a good start to our upper driveway!


At this point, it was getting late and Mom and I headed inside to get ready for church.  Jim stayed out to do a little more digging, so pictures to come!

Today was a big celebration day - Mom's 89th birthday!  She enjoyed calls and texts from family and we celebrated with cake and ice cream after dinner!  



High 76.9/Low 60.1 - beautiful!
