Dirty Work

We have to finish backfilling around the addition's foundation. This task was mostly completed about two months ago, and now we're covering up the last few inches. We're also in the process of preparing the yard for the winter weather that is fast approaching. This means that we have to modify the slope of the ground so that water will drain away from the house, rather than toward the foundation.

Here we are having fun digging nasty, sticky mud:

This photo shows our progress along one side of the addition. (In case you can't tell, the backfilling is complete along the right side of the photo.)

The Roof, The Roof, The Roof Is On, But Not On Fire

That would be really bad.
