Digging In


It was a busy day at the Farm... truckload upon truckload of gravel and sand were delivered to the backyard and dumped; a septic tank was lowered by crane into the ground; a leach field was piped in; and more scraping and painting happened. The scraping of paint seems endless, I thought I was pretty much done with it after today but realized that I still have the trim to do! I suppose this should have been obvious, but on the upside Jeff's recent Craigslist find was a paint sprayer and it is incredible...

Realized that I hadn't put a full photo of the Farm up yet! Here's a picture from May... when we were first under contract!

the Farm this evening

Archway to be installed between kitchen and dining room

Wall between kitchen and living room is mostly out

The Den/Downstairs Bath: we (i.e. pretty much Kathi and Michelle) pulled up lots of flooring and took out a wall. The Trash Guys (yeah that's their name) are coming to pick it all up tomorrow!
 Septic Installation Montage!

It's a funny thing to be so excited about a... um... waste receptacle (to put it appropriately and maturely)


Septic Tank about to be picked up





Les, Andy, and Kathi came by to visit this evening! It looks more like they're in a quarry... not our backyard
