Home Ownership

Well here I am digging out our moat around our house. Actually just one side of our house. We dug out 2 trenches, one above the first trench closest to the house and one right by the house. The one right by the house, we have put in 4 inch pipe so as to divert the water away. Tomorrow we get a load of gravel, so half of our house with have lots of gravel so as to keep out the water. We are also going to put it around all sides of the house, so that the water has someplace else to go. Oh, the joys of home ownership. The work never seems to stop. Our next big project will be replacing all the basement windows, which Don is going to do with a little help from one of our parishoners and yours truly.

Right now it is sunny, so hopefully tomorrow will be the same. They are delivering the rock at 9 am, so you know what we will be doing in the morning. Plus I hope it stays nice so that we can mow and weed whack.
