Other Options Working Out

Well, other options for the drive came through very fast. Tide Guy took a day from work on Wednesday. We borrowed my brother's tractor. The dirt was delivered by 9:30 am and Tide Guy spread the fill dirt and put hay on top. Before noon we had access to the backyard for large trucks.

Also, on Wednesday, I stained the kick boards on the steps. Now, Tide Guy can complete the trim on the steps. Maybe he can finish that task this weekend. After that, we need to install the last two rails on the steps and we are done. Finally!!

Our deck is on the second floor so we can sit underneath it. While under construction, we had it dried in. All the water is moved to the ends and at this time it is just dumped onto the ground. Wednesday we prepared the area so the gutters can be installed under the deck and moved into pipes away from the house. So, the vinyl guy should arrive at some point and get that job done.

The tree guy called. Due to the tornadoes last week, he is tied up with people with damage. He is helping them, so having our 14 trees cut down has been delayed a few days. I told him that was fine, but I need them gone next week. As long as the weather holds out (i.e. no rain), we shouldn't have a problem. As long as the trees are down and gone before March 23 we will be good. I just want them gone sooner rather than putting off too long.

We are so ready to enjoy this pool!
