Progress but no finish line . . .

 

Who would have thought that filling in a hole with the help of three people would take so long! The trio, my husband, son, and son's friend, have been going at it to the tune of about 80 wheelbarrow loads each since eight this morning. It is almost 7:30 in the evening and they are barely done. The worst part? When they are done, they are not done as we had to order another truckload of dirt. The estimate arrived at by both the company and my husband was off. Tomorrow, only one truckload is being delivered but I think the blisters earned today will soon remind the guys of what is ahead. Fortunately, it has been down in the 80's which is unusual and a blessing for sure.

The dog is confused. She always wants in the house and is usually outside. Today, she HAD to stay in the house and she wanted to be outside with the action. We did give her a break during lunch and she enjoyed checking out the smells that came with the new dirt.
