A lot has happened in the backyard since the week before Christmas. This entry is not quite up to date as the hole around the foundation walls have just been backfilled today. There is a set of concrete steps and a Bilco door on this new bulkhead.
There was the nasty surprise of "the hardest rock I've ever seen" ledge right where the basement is supposed to go. There were two escalations in the equipment, from a one-man jack-hammer, to a bigger jack-hammer mounted on a small crawler, to a Big Dig jack-hammer mounted on a large crawler that shook the neighborhood. Never the less, things are moving along on schedule. The unseasonably mild weather has been much appreciated.
