March 4th - Actually Accomplished a Little

I didn't need to go to town for anything today, I got to stay at my mancave all day 😊

I don't think I mentioned that I'm getting another neighbor. As I understand it, a friend of Duane Burgess bought 5 acres from Brady Burgess. It is located on the east side of Duane & Teresa's property, their property adjoins ours on our east side. They are cleaning out some of the trees along the road and have what I assume is a driveway cleared. Duane and Teresa's building site if quite a ways back off the road. (You can't see it from the cabin.) My guess is that the site of the new neighbors home will be at the back of the 5 acres. I was told they are going to move in a double wide, but I don't know when.

Today was the first day I actually made a little progress. I swept out my shed. It is probably the cleanest it will ever be.

 I raked a bunch of leaves away from the cabin and did a little digging to continue the drain pipe. I still need to extend the buried electrical conduit up and through the cabin wall directly below the electric meter. The conduit will go through the wall just above the bottom of the siding.

I extended the trench this far and said enough for today.

The white that you see in the photo below is a rock shelf. My next step will be trying to break some of it out so that I can get the drain pipe lower.  If I don't knock off some of the rock the top of the drain pipe will almost be exposed. I can't add more dirt on top or it will be above the bottom of the siding.

It wasn't all that muddy. The current forecast is a 30% chance of rain Monday and an 80% chance on Tuesday. I may give the rock breaking a go after church tomorrow.

God is good. May He bless you and yours.
