Here's a look at the home pad and driveway. As you can see it has been quite an undertaking. We are getting ready to pour the foundation for the house. Where Heidi and Elise are standing now will be the future basement just below the living room.
The driveway looking up toward the home site. It is at a 10% grade.
This is the slash pile that I foolishly tried to chip with a large rental chipper one beautiful 105 degree summer afternoon. As you can see, I didn't get very far.
This road was raised approximately 3 feet all from materials taken from our excavation! The neighbor wanted to raise the road bed to match the future Fernan Lake Road improvement and gladly took the material we needed to remove. Worked out pretty well for the both of us.
Elise likes it! She even got a new hairdo and purse to mark the occasion!

What a way to celebrate, with a new costume! Papa
Weak. You rent a chipper shredder and don't invite your friends over to destroy stuff. I'm disappointed.
Your such a doll and look so pretty Elise!! Congrats on the progress of your new house.
Having a driveway is overrated. You can park on Fernamn Lake Road.
While the bulldozer's are onsite you should build a 500' slip-n-slide: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2593764
