New Project

Yesterday we started a new project in our basement - digging out the west side of our basement. We found out one of the reasons that side of the basement was so damp was because we had a leak in our pipe connected to our outside hose. We'll save that fixing project for another time. Drum, Dime, Deer, and Duke spent several hours in the basement with Dunk helping him dig out the old cement. I think Dime's muscles are increasing as I watched him chug cement out the basement hole. It is a yucky job but the kids are excited about getting to see progress on this old house.
We have switched our hours around and have been working late and sleeping in around here. We are all looking forward to some upcoming days where we can wake up with NO RAIN! Dunk had a few times with digging where he had to quick board up the basement window while the rain poured over him.
Today's project is to clean up in the studio before gymnastic lessons today. We will continue in the basement as soon as the rain lets up and we can open up the hole.
