day 216: concrete


formwork for the concrete front porch and steps


here comes the concrete truck


pouring the front porch


the concrete team


apparently a good time to smoke a pipe is when you are spreading concrete


the front porch after some floating and broom sweeping


before the concrete came, the guys made formwork for the wall footings


bringing over the concrete block


laying concrete block where it won't be seen


the excavator helps build up the ground


what's wrong with this picture?


the dirt pile's biggest fan


day 1 progress on the stone walls


terraced walls are dry-stacked barn stone since they have no deep footings


meanwhile, a smaller crew started installing the wood floor upstairs. what a nice view in that chop shop.


floor installation in the living room


later that day


day one progress on the dining room floor

meanwhile, the tile installer worked on the master shower floor
