And we have begun!

Well it has finally begun!!

We have a basement! Well mostly anyway as of yesterday. The excavator hit rock with still about 2 to 3 feet left to go, so we will have to wait a little for him to get a chipper to remove the rock so he can continue. Although judging by the fact that it only took him about a day and half to two days to get this far, we shouldn’t have to wait too long!

For your viewing pleasure:

We’ve only hit another small snag (well, hopefully small) besides the rock in the basement. Apparently when Dig Rite marked the site for the driveway entrance for us, somehow a phone line got missed…so in about the first 5 minutes of digging and the first 6 inches of dirt, a phone line was hit. So we do that have that to get straightened out. Hopefully it won’t take too much.

After the basement is dug, and the driveway complete (I’m not 100% sure the driveway has to be done but we’ll just say it does), we will be ready for concrete!

I am very excited. Now if only our current home would sell…

And I leave you with a picture of our adventure the other night as we started to load Yoshi to go check out the site:

Yes, he got up there himself. A was not too happy.
