OK, now I see. Well you are going to get some exercise tomorrow.

Welp, we never made it to the trench. Spent all morning moving the shed to a new location. Used his tractor to drag it on the 2x6 skids.

Leveled a spot for the shed. Hauled out my back blade, old and new bucket booms and my forks on the flatbed trailer. Unloaded them with his tractor. Might be hauling my tractor out to his place in a couple days.

Today the local Rural Electric Association(REA) was setting the poles for the 744 feet of 660V primary wire. Today they will only set 3 poles. They will come back next Monday to set the last pole and run the primary overhead wire. My son and I will trench and run the secondary wire to the shop when he arrives this coming March. The septic, well and shop will start in June.

Going to be a very busy year for me. Tons of things to do to get all the utilities all in place the two buildings up. Lots of updates will follow.

For now here are some pics of the REA drilling and setting power poles.

Really interesting thread. Any updates on your house?
