Digging a really big hole

 Now our backyard looks like this. A small retaining wall will be built along the left hand side.

 The pool is pegged out and this is the first dig, of one ginormous hole.

 Once they got past the mud on the top, the underneath was good old Adelaide clay.
It looks great and we are getting really excited.
Im dreaming of yellow and white cushions on the daybed on the deck, and cute hanging candlelight, and G&Ts as the sun sets after a 40C day, and friends lingering for dinner.

 Just a little bit of work to do before then!!
I really am enjoying a project.
Its a bit more stressful for My Mate, worrying about all the finer details.
 Im not a details kind of girl, I just choose the colours!
