Sea of Dirt

Tuesday April 22- The bobcat is making it's first swipe. Removing all of the sod.
Almost done. Dirt uncovered.
Done for the day. Clara and Chrysanthemum are checking out the destruction of their playground. The stakes behind Clara mark the location of the new sidewalk. The new lower deck will jut out to where Clara is sitting. The stake by the bobcat is the location of the gate entering the pool area.
Wednesday morning. April 23. Loading the sod and taking it away. On the hiway the city crew has come and posted a sign: TRUCKS ENTERING. We're big time now.
This scene has now been repeated for hours. Loads and loads of dirt are being brought in to raise the level of the pool area. Fun to watch. I'm beginning to get a rough idea of how it's going to be. It may be storming tonight so it may be a wash out tomorrow. Literally.

Wow! They're wasting no time, the back is going to look so different being level. Can't wait to see it all come together.
