My crew of daughter, boyfriend, junior, and two of his friends prepare for the most hectic day thus far (and likely of the entire build). Pour #01

Here's junior rinsing off.

You can see the footings starting to take shape.

Roderick part III got to climb up into the . . . well . . butt of the cement truck, and spray it out.

Placing a course of the "wetset" blocks into the wet footings.

Pumping concrete into those 20' tall culverts.

Then we moved onto the monolithic garage slab. We had quite a blowout of the back corner forms. EEEK!!!

Starting to smooth out the garage slab with the bull-float.

Trying to work the concrete. Tricky stuff that!
