Time to pound the ground and then a couple more dry days then a concrete truck might make it back here.

Huge amount of effort ( & bit of frustration) to realize your dream! Best of luck with the rain clouds.

Starting to get major things done each day now. I started the day by moving the remainder of the lime pile located on the road so I could  get the truck to the job site with the plate compactor. I cut a larger path on the lane so the concrete truck can back up to the site.

The day begins with a shovel in the hand and day dreaming about deer hunting on opening day to pass the time.

John, you sound like a state worker with the day dreaming about hunting season while you work.  ;D

Aerial picture showing all the improvements you've made would be impressive, I'm sure.  'Course wouldn't want that picture to make its way to the assessor's office!
Hope all goes smoothly.
