HK is building more storage shelves for the mudroom.

Some of the books have been released from their 4 years in captivity.
Sadly, many of their pals remain incarcerated in Box Mountain.

Ramp Building and Rock Portraits

The ramp is nearly finished, just the limestone for the surface and clean up to do.

A few more K2 stones are required to complete the job.

Digging Holes and Filling Them

HK dug a big hole where the Japanese Maple will eventually live.
He used the gravel from the hole to fill in a ramp by the tractor shed.

Then he brought a lot of dirt in the tractor.

and dumped it into the hole.....

again and again.....

Ramp Building and Electrical Completion

The first phase of the ramp construction is underway.
The basic structure has been created and the cement boards
will soon be covered by the big rocks

The ramp from the other side.  Once the big rocks are placed
the topcoat will be added on and packed down

The final electrical step was to put the outlets into the floor.
