Thanks everyone for the kind words.
The excavator made a lot of progress yesterday. All the trees are cleared and he's started the grading. He'll be back today and probably be close to completion.
I'll post photos this afternoon. You'll be amazed at how much work got done. I was.
That's a great idea to have the kids sell eggs for college money. We have several neighbors that I know would participate. Maybe we start with 5-6 chickens and if it goes well, we move up production.
Highbeam, I'm 37. I don't know how much of an accomplishment it is, but it is nice to hear somone say that it is.
I promise to include lots of tractor photos here too. We're just not at the point that I can even get in there with the tractor.
