Tom Ranzenbach looks on as his son makes an early pass over the upper end of the driveway.

The pan took off about 1 foot of really nice topsoil.

The topsoil was carried to the east edge of the property where it was piled up out of the way.

Looking up the new driveway toward the area of the house.

Making another pass to scrape down a bit more.

Looking from the driveway toward our 157 peeled logs.

Looking down the driveway toward the piles of fill.

The pan returning to make another pass down the driveway.

Late in the day, a dozer was delivered to push the fill piles into the trenched driveway.
