House Addition

Putting a 1400 sq ft addition on our existing 1900 sq ft house. Here are some pics of the tractor helping out.
Clearing some trees. Just dropped them and dragged them up into a big pile in the woods to be chipped up later.

Foundation being dug by the mason after he removed all the stumps with his trachoe.

I used the mason's trachoe to load some of the bigger stumps into my dump trailer and my tractor for the smaller ones.
