Joy!

Work has begun! Albeit in the prep stages, but it has begun. The first step is to clear out some land for either the septic tank or the underground water storage tank...we haven't decided which one it will be, but it will be one of them.
We are so glad that at least something is happening! More later.

Progress

This week we need to buy stones...yes stones! This is because we need them dressed and dressing can take a while. If we are to stick to our January commitment to start building, the stones come in latest next week, especially to take care of the delays brought in by the Christmas and new year holidays.
We have pretty much decided on the colour of stone we are looking out for and it should be 'fun' to visit a few quarries to see if they have it! Ha! This is beginning to take shape!
