And so it begins.......
Today was the first day of construction on our house. It started like any other day. We left for work, took the kids to camp, and by 8:30am the digging began. By 9:15 my phone rang and Sue told me that Morgan was sick and needed to be picked up at school. I rushed home, as any good father would do, and picked up my daughter who did not appear to be sick in the slightest. As we arrived home we saw the construction crew digging through layers and layers of rock that our house apparently sits on. Shortly after making lunch for ourselves i witnessed the work crew accidentally break open our well water and electric line, and then remark," I wonder what that was doing there?" Long story short we got the problem fixed in a relatively short time by a friend of mine and we settled in for the night. Enclosed are the picture of the days events. Devon and his friends had fun playing some type of trench warfare game after the guys left for the day.

Give a boy a pile of dirt, and it's amazing what he will make of it. Just don't give Devon too much time in front of a History Channel program on World War I or else you might not get footers poured. LOL

This reminds me of the time we had the pond re-dug by "Jigs". Uncle Charles and Aunt Lois and Richard were over for a few day visit. Richard and I had "dirt clod wars" we fought in the semi-dried up pond bed, from behind piles of dirt. I clocked him in the forehead with a clod the size of a baseball. LOL
