Taking much longer than I had hoped . . . shouldn't be a surprise really. First - dug in the trench for the foundation. Next day - built the braces and set up the 're-bar' (big ???). Then the concrete mixer comes to pour and then we start laying in jumbo cinder blocks. Wooo Hoooooo. I get so excited just thinking about our cinder blocks. UPDATE: We're on day two of cinder block laying and man those things look heavy! Side wall is up and ready for plaster, back wall should be done on Friday. I'm sure when it's done next week the back neighbor will be around to file an official complaint that the wall is 3" higher than allowed and we can tear it all down and start over.
June 8: One more day and the wall should be done. Tomorrow the white stucco goes on and then we can begin clean-up. PILES of stuff and I'm calling around for a bin to be delivered that we can load up.
June 10th: The wall is done and now we've moved on to bigger and better projects. 30 foot dumpster arrives tomorrow to clear out the mess.
