Site Preparation

Thursday 26 September the skid-steer began making a level pad for the barn.  First he cleared a bunch of trees, from pencil size to 8"diameter.

From 1 p.m. until dusk he scurried around, cutting and filling, occasionally checking progress with a laser level.

When he was satisfied, he spread several inches of roadbase to form the floor of the barn.

And our pad is ready for construction.

It's over 100' behind the house.  It will be 30'x40' to hold Carl's dumping trailer, the pop-up camper, and Carl's tractor.  Now we're waiting for construction, which will start in about a month.
