Build journal – Clearing the land

September 1st & 2nd, 2015 – This is the K&B adventure that I’ve been waiting to blog about! Now that we officially own the lot, things are finally moving forward. Our driveway will be going in soon, and then the septic system will be dug & installed and the foundations for the garage & house poured.
This will be our driveway – it’s kind of hard to envision right now!


Brian hard at work chopping down trees with his new toy ;-) A lot of the trees are dead or half-dead, so I don’t feel too badly about chopping them down. It’ll probably help to encourage new growth, which is a good thing.

 




And here I am doing my job – piling up the branches. Gotta love the windswept hair look ;-)



That’s a big pile, and it’s just the beginning!

 

Brian marked off the area where the house will be going. Here I am standing in the kitchen and looking through the living room towards the main floor bedroom.


Still a long way to go, but the area where the house will be going is relatively clear.



It’s hard work, but when this is the view from tour office, it’s not so bad :-)
