Footing forms and finish of excavation

Once again the Kelly boys made the dirt fly. While I was getting ready to set footing forms, Bernie dug in both the cistern (fresh water) and the septic piping and set them to grade. I was able to get the upper part of the footing forms mostly built as Bernie switched to digging the trench for the lower footings. The footings in the front had to be set into a trench to keep them below the frost line.
