Things haven’t changed much in the last few days.  Apparently, the ground was still fairly wet under the surface, so earthwork dude was letting it dry out.

We had a safely distanced meeting on-site with our builder to discuss the next few steps.  There is some more grading to do and then the digging of the footers and the basement.   I must find my pink sunglasses Josh got me before it’s time for me to inspect these items.

I did a little practice inspecting today.

Looking good and level.

I had to check out the view from Pride Rock…er…Pride Dirt Pile.

Josh decided to have a little too much fun with photoshop after I started calling our pile of dirt “Pride Rock”.  Here I am presenting our house cat, Bu, to the kingdom.

I blame it on the quarantine.

Moving on.

We moved the trail camera back to its original location because I have recently learned about myself that, to me, watching dirt being moved is like watching paint dry.

The usual suspects showed up: Bambi, house cat, opossum, and a few curious neighbors.

Then came one of the funniest videos yet.

It started with a young lady turkey casually strolling by.  I’ve just learned this is called a “jenny”.

Hey, Jen.

Then a few seconds later she inexplicably picks up her pace and exits stage right…

…because here comes Tom!

I think the quarantine is getting to them, too.
