If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours ... In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness.

A couple weeks ago they had just started into the bedrock and you could see about where the 4 piles would be placed. Now, there is no doubt. Forms are secure about two of the piles and the center post on the remaining two is secure and ready for the cement to be poured. Outside the immediate hole you notice the large piles of dirt and rock from the excavated cavity. Most of it will probably be hauled away to land fill somewhere in the area.

| Dirt piles about the perimeter |

| Rocks about the lower parking lot - probably for the retainer wall. |
