In the beginning, there was a hole.

Hey - what happened to Strong?

In the beginning, there was a hole - to be precise, a hole to throw money in.  

M & H took delivery of the first batch of materials and got the tool tent set up (this makes their commute even shorter and allows room on the property for future deliveries). 

Next step - string out lines for the walls. These show the position of the house in relation to the property lines and the rocks (ah yes, the rocks - more about those in another post).  Turns out they needed to inch the house over a little to maximize the cistern volume and avoid a big boulder (well, at least that's what we thought). 

They also scraped the entire bottom of the hole to remove all organic material and any loose rubble. Remember that other than help from Bob and his big machine, it's just the two of them. Very impressive.
