Front yard work. Short update.

I was feeling kind of restless when I got home from work yesterday, so I decided to go do some more work on the front yard.  I started by cutting out the remaining conduit that was sticking up.  I cut them off several inches below the surface, so hopefully they won't pop back up when things settle.

I still had a bit of daylight left, so I took the tractor and put some gravel over there to start the leveling and smoothing process.  I was nearly out of daylight by that point, so I didn't get the dirt down, but it is a good start.  

No movement on the checklist.  Hopefully the guy from LaValley calls me back today, so I can complete the house plans.  I am still looking at living quarters while the slab and structure is going up though.  I am beginning to think that there are more projects here than I can complete this year though.  I haven't been quite as diligent about the projects as I have in past years.  I am enjoying the summer more this way.

Summer projects:

• Prep truck for trade in
• Determine house plans (modular vs mobile vs stick)
• Get my power service upgraded
• Shed floor
• Shed doors
• Concrete shed supports
• Anti-mouse the shed (seal it, maybe spray with pepper spray or something)
• Eliminate pile of crap in the back yard.  
• Level the yard.
• Investigate retaining wall construction. 
• Install windows in the shed.
• Fix/sell the utility trailer.
• Driveway round 5
• Get building permit
• Determine the future method of travel.  Build prototype?
• Come up with garage plans
• Clear walking trails on lot.  
• Build a bridge over the creek
