Final grading is still underway, but we are getting down to the end.  Grass is growing already where the grading is done behind the building. The floor drains are now hooked up and the retention berm has been extended around the pond.

Barry helped to get the heavy pieces of the lift in place so I won’t have to ask anyone to help with that job. A significant load off of  the folks attending the next party. Now I’ll have to get the hydraulics and cables hooked up. When I pulled the tarps off I found that the geothermal guys let their bentonite flow all over and under the lift pieces.  Another bout of pressure washing, and they don’t seem any worse it, but I’m not sure about the hydraulics. First step is to flush the hydraulic hose and cylinder to make sure none of the stuff got inside. Then, what do I do with all of that bentonite?

The propane tank is supposed to arrive next Tuesday, and we got some tables at auction to pick up this week. In the meantime, speakers are up and working in the shop, and I can turn them up as loud as I want. The office speakers are next, then the lift bay. There is still a lot of trim carpentry to do, which I expect to get to in the next couple of weeks. (Good excuse to buy some new tools.)
