June 16th, Rocks galore

This is the big dumpster we had brought in which I couldn't imagine we would fill up but we just about have already. Look how close it is to the house. I was too nervous to watch the guy backing it in place.

Rock was brought from a plant in a nearby town to fill the entrance to the garage.


Denis got in on the action by moving some of the rock around with his tractor.

Then the backhoe driver showed up at 6:30 at night and got the rock smoothed into place. He was anxious to get it done so he could do the concrete work for the floor of the garage the next day.


He also used the backhoe to fill in the floor of the garage with big rocks and concrete from the old back porch.


Here is the backhoe at rest for the night. I think it looks like a big bug. Look how nice he got the driveway to the garage.



Denis got on the roof to take this picture of the master bath and mudroom. Gives a different perspective doesn't it.
