Making Good On Declarations

A while back, I posted a list of stuff that needed to get done around the house. We've already removed the trees that were problematic and now we've begun a new overhaul phase where we brought in a ton of dirt:

Lots of Dirt

It was on the driveway when I got home from work. Three hours later, I got this far:

Two Hours Later

It's going to be a long weekend.

you need to keep that pile in the second picture right where it is as a Dunk Ramp!

Pray that it doesn't rain.

I had a neighbor do that and he left it for about a week. Every cat in the neighborhood used it as a litter box and there were all kinds of plants growing on it.

Dunk ramp. Great idea! We got a tarp to keep the rain off it but got pretty lucky so far. Plus, it's down to about 1/3 or less of the pile now.

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
