On-going site prep

Yesterday the Ames crew were prepping the site for the cement pad to be laid.  The ground was smoothed out and leveled, and while we were there they began laying a woven wire mesh inside the framework–it will serve as reinforcement for the cement.

Keith and I decided that this was not the time to have an actual gravel driveway put in, so the Ames crew used the bulldozer to smooth out the twin ruts that led up the hillside to the trailer-site.

Things are moving right along–with any luck we’ll be having a very special Thanksgiving this year!!!
