Making Progress

After a couple of weeks, progress! You can see we now have a roughed in driveway, an application for a street address, and have a water meter.
Soon we began laying the lines for power and telephone, piling up debris for a future bon fire, and were making progress towards the rear of the lot.
Now we can see the driveway taking shape, then it was time to burn all the debris (this was a 3 day project) and finally the place where Brian buried all the ash, which eventually will be just after where our barn will be located. Lots of work!
Very happy with our progress thus far.

After another successful tax filing season, we left in early May to arrive in Coupeville and start the process of developing our land.
