Due to some unseasonably warm weather (and even a cold day, today), the boys have been working in earnest at their dig site. The initial hole gained a roof and a new trench/tunnel was dug, connecting to the original site. Today an "escape hatch" was added, just in case any part of the entrance should collapse while they're in the main room. The boys love it underground and swear that it's quite warm and cozy (they now understand why some animals burrow!).
