In the beginning, there was the excavator........ then the forms........ then the concrete;
Tuesday - excavation
Wednesday and Thursday - forms and gravel
Friday - Concrete pumped
Monday - forms removed and clean-up
South side of our bedroom
Excavating in front of the wood window
Cutting the concrete and excavating south of the kitchen
Now the east side of the house
The porch (with the resident snake) is gone
And the kids loved it
gravel is delivered
porch rebuilt
Concrete is pumped from the truck to the pumper
Wood window
north side of house
Porch
South of bedroom
South of kitchen
And it's over. We can walk on it starting on Monday
But Holland got to stand on it first
And Warren tasted to see it the flavor was robust
We did lots of other stuff this week too
Burned more tree trimmings
Dad repaired the Gravely
kids played with new "frisbees" after school
Dad worked on repairing a split drainage pipe in the camper....luckily Malcolm knew what he was doing and had the right tools. ....and gave kids a ride on the ATV
We cleaned out one side of greenhouse #2 - before the blackberries took over
While waiting for the concrete truck to come, we practiced our gymnastic routines
We did some work up at Goodin Acres. Planted about seven evergreen trees along the fence line between the Mealue's property and the eastern part of Goodin Acres
We asked Vanessa's boys to rake up all the leaves in the front yard and put them in the trailer. Then we spread the leaves on our garden
And if that wasn't enough, we went to the last home meet of the OSU Gymnastics Team
Sunday was the birthday party for all the March babies.
Malcolm is 31 on March 22nd
