Looks good. I hope the weather hasn’t been to hot while you’re doing this.

It's not the heat it's the humidity, well somneone had to say it:-) Fortunately we have shade for almost all of the morning and from about 3pm on. But that Noon to 3 is a bit toasty

We had just enough rain on Monday to make it unable to work. Nothing like trying to turn the Uni-Loader on the street and having it slide about 10 feet down the street!!!

Here is the scene as of Tuesday Night 6/19. We have almost all of the upper level excavated. We ran into two small issues today.

1st: the ground was to soft for the Uni-loader to work on the terrace. No problemo, we used the excavator to dig the dirt out and dump it in front of the wall. Then I could use the loader to move the dirt to the back of the neighbor's yard.

2nd: we found the gas service to the house :-( Fortunately we had the gas shut off and I did not dig the gas line up:-) The Gas Co will be out in the morning, Hopefully they will cut the line so I can finish the footings for the second wall.

Well that's it for tonite, Y'all have a great day.

Regards

My goodness! You have been working. We thought we were doing good to plant a shade garden. You are certainly ambitious.
