Last weekend we went back to the property (I wish we had stock in Chevron!) to do underground piping for water and gas lines. When we arrived we surveyed what our contractor had accomplished since our last visit. I never imagined that I'd be excited by retaining walls being formed up and sidewalks being laid out, or even a huge pile of gravel in the garage area!
Cliff and a friend worked on putting in gas and plumbing pipe in preparation for the slabs being placed later this week.
We also had three men digging trenches for our drainage system around the house.
I supplied the food and moral support, but spent most of my time in our trailer sewing. The view is pretty good, wouldn't you agree? 
On Friday a summer storm came through. The day was warm, about 80 degrees, but in the late afternoon clouds started to build up and then came rain with lightning and thunder. It was beautiful to watch but unfortunately the lightning started several fires in the area.
That's all for now. Check back soon to see slabs, retaining walls, sidewalks and radiant heat tubing. Oh the thrill of it all!
