     5/17/01.
Moving dirt around to get us a front yard, and provide drainage for the

moved. |

More views of the dirt work. |
 |
 5/31
The well drilling equipment is set up |
 |

5/31. Tarring the foundation. The girls wore paper jumpsuits
for it. |
 |
Dale, being too small to tar, had plenty of fun checking up
on what everybody was doing. He even managed to get a little tar on
him, besides all the dirt and sand he was playing in.. |
 |
 5/30
& 6/2 The basement gets poured. |
 |
   |
We're also looking at acreage tractors, and were able to try
out this Boomer for the weekend. Dale liked his ride. Yes, the
pretty flowers are all noxious weeds and we had to spray them.
:>(
Update: We bought the Boomer with a front end loader and belly
mower. Love it. |
 |
6/2 You can make out where the runways are
going to be. I mowed a couple strips with the Boomer. |
 |
 Tarring the foundation still. Erica even
got her friend Erin to help out. Doesn't this seem a bit like Tom
Sawyer? :>) |
 |
  Our first water from the well! |
