Home Site Clearing

Noah has been working on clearing the trees for the house to be built. Here is a picture of the kids standing in front of the felled trees (to help give some scale to the picture even though the quality is low). Andrew (our contractor) was here for a few days and helped with this.
 
And then here is the home site minus the kids.
 
In order to be able to cut up the trees for firewood, Noah first cut off the limbs and burned them. Here is a picture of the site minus the limbs. A huge difference! He has been busy and it is paying off (and will continue to pay off as we burn the wood in our wood stove in future winters!). We are hoping for a few dry days to be able to excavate the foundation next week. We have had our share of patience lessons lately!
