A pimple of a job

The excavators brought by one very large piece of machinery today.  They now want to start the work on Thurs, if it is not raining (guess what the forecast was for earlier today!). 


The gentleman in charge has informed us that the prep work will be done by Mon, Nov 8 and this is just "a pimple of a job".  From our point of view, it must be a truly huge, volcanic type pimple!  It is all just a matter of scale I guess.

Hopefully you can see the stakes that outline the building site.  These include the building and the porch.  I am "in the office" and Agnes is patrolling the perimeter.  The excavators actually brought the dozer over the ridge and down the hill (the right side of the photo)!  We thought they were bringing it tomorrow and had gone out to get pre-work photos.  Imagine our surprise to find the dozer all ready there and realize we had not heard a thing! 

If you are new to the blogspot way, you should be able to click on the photo and see it enlarged.  And please leave us comments.
