The excavator started his early work today, rough grading the home site. A major milestone. Next comes the well, and then the foundation.

We got the ok to dig after a site inspection today. In our state if you dig before you call the inspectors and you damage a utility, you are liable. So like a good boy I called them on fri. They showed up today and marked the site “ok”. So I promptly stuck a shovel in my teeth and dug for all I was worth. (Either that, or I hopped on our kubota B21 and dug it like a normal person would).

I dug the ditch for the entrance cable for our underground service power cable.
