Lots of progress with week with my dad and brother up here. They actually came to ride their ATVs around but also used them to move wood around. Got the two big trees cut up and hauled off. Also got the deck removed and taken to the dump. Silt fence is complete and inspected by the engineering department (thanks Jeff for the last 30 ft of trench). Lastly installed the temporary support under the house so it does not fall down during excavation. So, we are basically ready for the excavator.
