Not Richard and Karen

Well, the carpenters have arrived. On Friday (or was it Thursday?) and Saturday, large bundled stacks of lumber were delivered to the building site. Today, there was lots of banging and power sawing as two guys methodically cut the lumber to length, then laid it around the perimeter of the concrete slab.

Yesterday, a backhoe dug a large hole in the back yard, then put the big ol' septic tank in it, then filled the dirt back in. A fair pile o' dirt was left over, piled nearby. The back yard -- or what **will** be the back yard! -- slopes a bit, so maybe some forward-thinking workers will spread it around back there.
