Summertime

Nine-thirty in the morning, and the footing is done. Not completely, but roughed in. There is a generally rectangular ditch dug in the yard. We'll have to fine tune it a bit when we install the form for the concrete. Then, there'll be more trenching to dig for sewer, water and electricity. In building anything you spend a lot of time digging down so you can build up. There is bound to be a chinese proverb there somewhere.

Temerature on my shaded porch is 90 degrees exactly. It is a hell of a lot hotter in the sunny area where I was digging forms. The NOAA website tell me that it will get to 99 degrees today. I doubt it, but they just might be right.

I think I might go to the grocery and get some meat to throw on the pit.
