Today was Early Release day at school so we stopped by to check out the Progress. It looks like someone marked a bunch of flags around the Power box.
The Excavation Crew was out there. We got to talk to them for a bit.
We could tell that the hole is larger than yesterday so that means they did some digging earlier.
But they are waiting for a dirt sample to get tested before they do anymore. If it's too sandy, they will have to dig the basement floor deeper and backfill with a different kind of dirt to make it solid enough to pour the foundation (and not have it settle unevenly). That was not what we were worried about with excavating. We kept getting warnings about land around here and the fact that when they hit rocks and solid ground- they have to do blasting. But-- guess that's par for course in our lives. Nothing usually goes as we expected. LOL We'll see what they say tomorrow.
