No wedding this Saturday - but we were thoroughly surprised when Lauren showed up at a party we were attending at a friend's house in New Jersey! So, Saturday the whole family made a quick visit to the site. The plate and backfilling around the foundation were done. The ground was leveled in the garages and filled with stone, ready for the cement foundation. Beau took great delight in running around the plate and leaping off the sides - making me very nervous. I could only hope he had good depth perception and wouldn't jump off the south side, above the walk out basement! We followed him as he raced up to the RV garage, chasing shadows of several very large birds. More excavation was done for the RV garage which resulted in a very large pile of dirt. Be sure to see the picture of Beau playing king of the mountain!
