You could have the digger make a hole and then upend it in. How elegant that would be although I'm really not sure crew's work would be of Druid quality. Any way, it would make a lovely landscape centerpiece .Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172029625828982319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-56625209065524978692017-07-13T15:57:39.558-04:002017-07-13T15:57:39.558-04:00Glad the girls -- well, at least Annie -- is survi...Glad the girls -- well, at least Annie -- is surviving the construction well!

So I left it open for them to come and go with lots of tunnels for her to hide in in the bedroom.

Then I cracked up reading reading about Audrey. Bless her heart, I can't help but laugh...and it is your fault Deb, that I laugh. I just love how you write! Poor Audrey. Glad she could still eat. Audrey and I are a lot alike! That is one big rock! I can see where there would be no changing your mind, once it's in place. :)Henny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958386938311591314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-28028368345086819792017-07-13T13:32:03.152-04:002017-07-13T13:32:03.152-04:00I'm so excited for you!!

First you can't wait for them to start and then, once they really get to building, you'll wonder when are they ever gonna get done!! ha ha!! Luckily, they didn't find any boulders like yours, but they did have to move 4,000 yards of earth to make us a "flat spot" to put the house(we live on the side of a limestone bluff.) My kitties weren't too thrilled with all the noise, but they soon got used to it. I think all the extra pats and cuddles probably had something to do with it. :>)<br />Once again...congratulations on your "new beginning"!!!!Nancy in northeast Iowahttp://www.carolanguesthouse.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-49874306820559999702017-07-13T11:52:32.015-04:002017-07-13T11:52:32.015-04:00That is a good sized rock!

I always provide a 'safe zone' with their kibble, water and litter box. The usual drill is invisible cats until the end of the work day when air compressors are silenced and power tools set down. Then the cats creep out cautiously and investigate the changes.Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-89671551832853097512017-07-13T09:53:55.815-04:002017-07-13T09:53:55.815-04:00Poor Audrey!

We are lucky enough to have some of the ruins of the farmers stone wall left on our property & I really try to plant decorate around them. Thank goodness the kitties are ok with the trauma of the noise; you are such a wonderful Cat Mom to know what each of them needs.Patio Postcardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04491809927236242223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-69064937114281049652017-07-13T07:33:39.862-04:002017-07-13T07:33:39.862-04:00I know you have been patienty waiting for this...e...I know you have been patienty waiting for this...exciting for sure.

It may be a guy thing - our male cat, Zeus, runs to the window anytime he hears a truck - he loves them. His sister could care less and almost rolls her eyes at him.<br /><br />Since this was your grandparent's land I wonder if you will find anything interesting from their past as they do all the digging? Wouldn't that be fun!<br /><br />Good luck keeping Audrey and Annie calm and maybe now is the time for that wine for you and retired guy!<br /><br />Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17738727252267659979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-6043612111816249472017-07-12T21:43:31.802-04:002017-07-12T21:43:31.802-04:00That is one big rock!
