The first concrete truck arrives (on time!) Thank you Hawaiian Cement.

 


There it goes. That's the first of 16 cubic yards of concrete for today.

 


Interesting view from the top of the neighbors wall

 


Even Joan, Giovanna, and DJ came by to check things out

 


Some more over here

 


We appear to be a bit short. The driver phones another truck and....

 


.... TA-DA! That's better

 


Let's see; 150lbs per cu. ft. ~ That makes over 32 tons!

 


I think it's time for a break

 


Lunch is over. Time to mix some mortar

 


This picture is significant because it's the first brick in the project

 


Two hours later, and moving along

 


Almost done with the 3 courses of 12" tiles

 


The 8" tiles are much easier to manage

 


Probably time for some scaffolding. It'll have to wait until Monday.

 


Not bad for a days work.
