I am knackered from getting this happening. Lots of shovelling, levelling etc, (machinery did 99%, I did the rest) but here is the updates to the pics in the 1st post of this thread (see above).

The Snake Valley Observatory and SVAA clubrooms are under way

The first 1 1/2 weeks of developement:

1. Excavation of the entry road commences
2. The top of the hill starts getting ripped off
3. The rough start of the road to the hill
4. 3 seperate flat tiers for observing are cut into the hill and drain pipes ready
5. Top of hill is made dead flat for the building
6. Drainage dug and pipes laid
7. All excavation works finally finished (today) and road sealed with Kaolin course sand
8. Young Harry mowing the paddocks
