Great Big Hole (Relatively Speaking)

There is great big hole in the land. Alas, no gold as of yet but they still have a bit more digging to do. Also, it seems a few more trees are going to meet Mr. Chainsaw to make room for our septic tank. I would prefer to keep as many as possible on the north side of the house, but a functional toilet and drainage system are nice as well. 

If the sun makes an appearance tomorrow, the foundation frame will be completed and the concrete will be poured on Monday. On the DIY side of things, we need to build a box for the base of the permanent power pole and dig the hole for it. Then on Monday we will put the pole up and fill in the hole with concrete. Sounds simple. I may even be able to get this done on the first try, but I'm not taking bets.
