| Sheep help keep the pastures open. |
Well it has been a little bumpy here the past week. While the weather in Paradise has been great, my brother and I discovered we have differing visions of the yurt project. This is his farm. Rambling, with sheep and chickens and wild pigs. I am an invited guest. But we aren't mirror images: we differ in many ways. It came to some heated words.
And I must say I don't do confrontation well. I try to avoid it. So the conflict came in 3 phases:
1. We had a heated argument (details unimportant to you). Just know that it was unpleasant.2. We took a couple days off then talked more civilly and "made-up".
3. Then we talked again and we got the issues ironed out, for the most part, and now it's back underway. (A truck load of stone arrives tomorrow AM)

In the process, I learned a few things, but perhaps those will appear in my writing blog...ah siblings!
News! I have finished digging holes, at least for the yurt. 19 in all.
More good news, the stone arrived on time. The bad news, it needs to be wheel-barrowed 700 ft, all 4 tons.

Here's a drawing of the deck plan. The small circles represent where the holes were dug for the piers.
