Looks like a bunch of dirt to me....


    To be honest they have actually been working on getting the site ready for a good month now.  That included taking out an entire hill  and leveling off alot of land.  Here are a few pictures of the finished 'footprint' of the building.  The lines on the pictures are just rough boundaries put on to give everybody an idea of where the building is going to set.  In person it's pretty obvious but the camera doesn't do such a great job picking up the details.  

This view is looking at the site from the paintball field.  The hill they took out starts at the two pine trees (you can still see the side of the remaining hill) and it came all the way towards where I was taking the picture.  

This picture is looking towards the site opposite from Hilltop Hall/Communiversity.  The hill on the left is the other side of the hill they took out.  Before they moved all the dirt you wouldn't be able to see hilltop, the house, or the truck because of the mounds of dirt that were there.  

This view is looking almost exactly opposite of the one above.  I'm standing right next to the bulldozer and the paintball field is to the right.



The next picture is kind of a fun picture.  We are installing a new well for the MPB and we had to dig out some existing water pipes to tie into.  While it's not even close to the site of the building this is where we have to tie into them,  Lakeside Chalet.  We're on the North side (closest to Pine Ridge) of the Chalet.  The white pipes at the bottom are probably 10-12 feet down.  It took our Maintenance crew about a day to dig this all out.  The Pipe we're going to be tapping into is the one at the bottom with the little jog in it.  Having a second, and larger,  well will give us about double the water pressure on the West side of the lake to accommodate the new building.
