May 19th
Our last full day of work, and boy did we work!
The day started off looking like it was going to be a beautiful one.
The project for the day was to get the rest of the foundation poured for the back wall of the fence. This day though the cement was mixed in the small mixer and delivered in wheel barrels.
that’s 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, 4 parts gravel
Half way through the day it rained a bit, then cleared again
Towards the end of the day, as the sun set, the last corner was turned and the last caldron of cement was poured.
and that was it!
The company working along side on the house began the process of digging out the rest of foundational trenches for Stephen’s home. Because the plot is so small, and it will be filled with the home, it had to be done in 2 parts.
the first back hoe had problems, so this older one came as a replacement.
quite the hole they dug
