Our excavator, Pat, is cutting a road and a flat spot to park the trailer on our property. We are staying on his property across the street while this is being done. This area has been getting much more rain than usual, some say it's been the wettest summer in thirty years! The snow a few days ago was preceded by two days of rain. The ground is saturated and snow is still on the north face of our property, where the road is, even though we've had a couple of warm days. Pat has hit an unusual (for this area) patch of clay while cutting our road. We need to get a load or two of gravel in that section of road, but with all the moisture still on the land, we may not be able to get a truck in there. And it may not dry out until spring, it all depends on the weather. We may not be able to pull our trailer on our property until spring.
