Haba na haba hujaza kibaba

Little by little, fills the pot.

It took awhile, but our wonderful excavators broke apart the ledge, and finally! Here we are -- in front of our pet rock, standing below what will soon be our front entry.

The cliff in our basement


This is where our basement should be. They discovered we have rock. Not rocks plural. Just rock. A rock. One rock. One BIG rock. I believe it is most likely connected to the center of the earth.

Jackhammering first. Hopefully not dynamite. But two things are certain - what was supposed to take a day or two has now turned into a week or two. And this is going to be one big EXPENSIVE rock!

P.S. These photos are from earlier this month, so I do know how this turned out, but thought I'd post the play by play anyway. :)
