Year 6, Day 52. “Living the Dream”. Sunday, 6/21/2026, Clifty Hill 3. Day 16 Block laying. Happy Father’s day everyone! Today is just another work day laying blocks. We had coffee watching this Momma skunk and baby skunk walk to the culvert to get a drink. Wonder where they are living. Please not under the shed. Remember the Williamsburg and the skunk whisperer.

Steve wanted to work for Fathers Day. It is supposed to rain tomorrow so he it made sense to work today. He was up laying block at 6:30am. Seeing the foundation up out of the ground from our house has energized the working days. Here is a video of the build progress as of today.
The umbrella we moved from our deck to the work site is great. It can easily be moved around for shade to take breaks under.
Summer soltice is here. The planet’s northernmost tip is tilted toward the sun and it is officially the longest day of the year and the first day of summer. Besides being Fathers day it is also International Yoga Day. By noon time the wall between the garage and the master bedroom area is up to height. 66 block were used to complete it and three bags of type S cement.
The open blocks are filled in under the foundation windows. This provides an easy place to nail lumber to.
The empty pallets are gathering now.
The garbage cleanup is under way also.
Daily reflection:
