Breaking Ground!

I have never been so excited to see an excavator in my life. We met out at our property yesterday to finalize the positioning of the house, and excavation started! So yesterday the culvert went in for the driveway and rock was put in for the drive up, drive way, and then they put some perforated pipe buried in rick along the south side of the property to catch the water run off so we wouldn't have the run off from the properties beside us. This morning an engineer came out to survey the the ground and after digging down to get to some good solid ground 3 feet down we learned we would need to bring in some rock 100 TRUCKS. Yes that's right 100 truck loads! Our house will be sitting nice and high. Things look quite a bit different out their, we are very excited too see things change.
