Concrete!!

All our hard work before our trip paid off.  They came yesterday to pour half of the garage floor.  This same man poured the first garage floor of our house.  Nice gentleman!  Didn't mind Elijah hanging around watching and asking questions.

OUT BACK DOOR

CORNER OF HOUSE-- we need to get to backfilling so you can actually see something new here.

BY 1ST FRUIT TREE

CHINOOK STREET- see above comment about backfilling.

MISC- 

We have had to pump water out of the puddles that collect with each rainfall. 

You can also tell I married an engineer... no less than 4 pipes of various shapes and sizes running

through each hole that we dig.

This will be the food storage room.  Yeah!  I get a drain in it.  Changing a year supply of water won't be as daunting.

And I love this time of year.  All our fruit trees are blossoming!
