No more pit

Today was my last day of work, and I left a little early so the workers were still on site when I arrived.

The forms were removed from the foundations, and the pit has been fully filled back in with recycled fill. We talked about our plans for the garden on the right, and so Sean was able to rip out the juniper using the Bobcat - I wish I'd had a video camera. The Bobcat actually tilted when he was pulling it out - it had quite the root system. But the rhododendron is unharmed, so Brooke and I will be able to build our new garden around it, later on. We left the multicoloured bush in place for now as well, although I'm not sure with its position if we'll ultimately be keeping it or not.

One of the trucks (sounds like it was the one that delivered the waste bin) blew its power steering line today and leaked fluid all over the street. They've soaked it up as much as possible using kitty litter, and will power wash it as well. Hopefully it won't do any damage to the asphalt!

They didn't get to the framing today, so I guess that's the next thing we'll be seeing!
