Well the site has been cleared and the septic field and tank installed. Below are some photos after the clearing. So far the process has been a little slower than anticipated. We are still hopeful on being in the house August 31st (at least Corey is hopeful, Anne is doubtful).
We are hoping Rahvi can come by and get these red pines for future use.
This is the site of for the septic field.
Unfortunately, ledge was uncovered when the septic field was being installed and the tank was shifted erroneously to another spot. 
Jay and Tobin standing on the tank surveying the damage. The proximity to the tree and height of the tank are both unfortunate as the last thing we want to be looking at while sitting on our deck is the septic tank. Now we have to shift the field a bit and the tank to get the tank away from the trees and much lower in the ground. So nothing will be done this week. Sigh...
However, Rob taught Anne to dowse this weekend and she found water! (Well in all fairness, Rob found the vein first). Nonetheless, we have discovered a new talent of Anne's. We are hoping to get the well drilled this week while we wait for the revised septic approval...

Holy smokes.. Any trees left on the island? Joking. Looks like there is actual progress. Just let me know when Eliza and I should bring our hammers. :-)
