Well things are finally starting to move. Today the bulldozer cleared trees, did some road work, and grading. Gravel was laid in the lower part of the road. I had a crazed day and couldn't get out there until 7:00 p.m. and was relieved to find that the trees had been removed within the flagged areas that I'd marked months ago. Even though I am pleased, I have a bittersweet feeling as well. It was hard to think about coming onto this land where no one has ever lived and changing it to fit my needs. I am respectfully grateful for the space and quiet and thankful for God's handiwork. I'm trying to make the smallest footprint possible. One of my parishioners advised me to look for arrow heads because this area had lots of native people activity long before the bulldozer and I got here.
Tomorrow the basement will be dug and Friday the footings get poured.
So excited for to see such a change. Glad the weather has decided to cooperate for you!
