Year 6, Day 23 “Living the Dream”. Saturday, 5/23/2026, Clifty Hill 3. Day 1 Laying the block for the foundation.The past two days we have gotten 5 inches of rain.
We ended up canceling the open house. We didn’t want people walking through the Wellington with wet/dirty feet. The water has drained from the footing. Tried to work in the morning, but it was way to rainy. It looks like there is a lot of rain still coming our way in the next week. We went out and bought tarps, canopies, and rain gear so we can maybe get some work done. The hummingbirds are so happy with the weather. We now have five at the feeder. In fact all the frogs, birds, butterflies, and spiders are out now. They were hiding and keeping real quiet with the heat and dry weather.
It cleared up somewhat after lunch. At least the rain mostly stopped.
At 2pm the first basement corner was started. Two bags of cement were mixed up. A bag at a time in the cement mixer. The cement mixer is running off a battery.
Daily reflection:
