Picture 1- Before
Today the bobcat arrived and they were able to move the blocks which held up the hill next to the garage to a spot on the side of the road that goes to the upper part of the property. We will save these to use to edge garden beds. The first picture is a photo taken yesterday of the hillside with three rows of blocks. The bottom row is mostly hidden. The second photo shows it as it is this evening. Picture three shows one of the sets of blocks neatly stacked up along the road.

The backhoe driver was digging out more of the crawl space under the house. (Pic 4) He will now be able to start moving dirt down next to the garage now that the blocks are out of the way. They need to build up the ground under where the stairs will go.
Picture 4. Crawl space for the house with the back wall towards the camera and garage apartment in the background.
Meanwhile the steel guys were working on building the scaffolding for the lower deck under the tree. (Picture 5)
