Making some progress on the hangar. By beginning of September, the foundation was in and most of the site prep was done. We knew the utility lines to the house would be going straight through the hangar foundation. The one unexpected hiccup, was we had lots of loam on our property, and not so much sand or gravel. So they dug a deep hole, extracted sand and gravel from it, and then buried the tree stumps from land clearing.
