Post Blast Clean-up

Kim and I stopped up at the site Friday afternoon between visiting the dentist and a session with Wes to discuss the various bids and some minor changes to the plans.  The first thing we noticed, and it was pretty hard to miss, was the driveway toward the top of the site was gone.  While we were blasting anyway, we decided to blast some of the ledge off of the driveway to lessen the slope.  Lee had already dragged out the blasted rock, so the only way up now was by foot.


Now that the blasting is done, Lee needs to spend some time doing what he calls 'organizing' the site.  I get what he means as right now there are piles of large rock all over the place.  First he's going to use a lot of the large excess pieces to fill in areas that need it and I guess then that will be covered with dirt.  Once that's done, they he can get back to digging out the foundation and sifting through the remaining rocks for us to use in fill and our various landscaping products.


Below are a couple of other shots ... basically the entire site curtain is now a quarry.
