Great Excitement - Week 10
An exciting day Tuesday at the lot. We are able to see the bottom of our lot for the first time. The person who operates the excavator was able to "grub" (dig out the immense growth, tear it out, take down trees that are junk trees) the lower part of the lot. At one point his machine got stuck at an angle hanging over the drop off and stopped by growth that snagged his gas line. He had to get under the machine, clean off the debris while gasoline dripped on his face. He was not a happy camper later in the day when we came by to cheer him on. He found the surveyor's stakes that were well hidden. One of those stakes, the one on the North West, we never saw before today. Fifteen months of looking at Elephant grass and other weeds. The surveyor placed the stake twice and honored our wish to have it placed on a tall piece of PVC. Unfortunately it was buffered by solid jungle until now. In case you missed it, when we bought this lot, we bought it "site unseen." That&
