Egress Window

Got started digging the pit for the basement egress window.  Big job, the hole is about 5'x4'x5'.  Adds up to a lot of dirt and a lot of digging.  Fortunately it's a lot easier digging here than it was in TX or CO.


The deepest part of the hole is deep enough, but there's still a lot of digging that I'll need to do.  This is enough room to get the concrete saw in there.  I've contracted a guy to come out and do that, but I'll schedule that for next Friday so I have plenty of time to prep the inside and outside.  I'll also have to cart away some of the dirt as I'm out of space to throw it while digging.
