Excavation Day 1

Yes, I said Day One. You'll see why later. Anyway, today started off amazing. I was truly astonished at how fast things went today. In fact, the pictures will do all the story.

 How the house looked when we began the day. It didn't stay like this for long.
 The excavator!
 There goes part of the rest of the house!
 Boom!
 And there goes the rest!
 Smash. No more house.
 DH working down in the trench next to the basement. It's deep. We have some foundation work we need to do, which is why we're digging around the foundation.
And this is why there is a Day One. The track came off the excavator. 15 mins AFTER the place closed for the day. Isn't that how it always goes? The plan now is to finish excavation tomorrow, after the people come and fix the track. Then, we're off and running on construction!
