Big Dig

The real Big Dig in Boston finally finished up a few years ago. However, there's a new big dig going on....in our back yard.

The mountain we previously called our back yard is getting terraced so that we actually have a usable space. We're also having our side yard fenced in and graded. Work started Tuesday and they're still digging up dirt and boulders. We didn't know how much of our yard was ledge (aka rock) so the digging part has been pretty exciting....a big mystery of what we would find. So far so good. Hopefully it will be done to have a great family cookout to celebrate Dylan's first birthday party. Here's what I came home to yesterday.

Once all is said and done, I'll post some before and after pictures. I can already tell, the transformation is going to be amazing!
