The Cement Pour, Part II
Sadly, all they’d returned to do is cut the interior pads already poured and put on another layer of sealant. Richard rushed us home from vacation for nothing. But they returned this morning to do the rest, so here is the latest. Richard is out there keeping an eye on things, very tired but pleased with how it has turned out. It is amazing what a difference the evenness of the concrete makes to the look of the barn and the back yard as a whole. I really must get out the weed whacker and get the rest of the yard tidied up - only three weeks 'til our annual August long weekend gathering, and while nothing like last year's UnWedding, we still hope to make this place worthy of a party. |
Last night we arrived home from a short, rainy, but very relaxing 4th of July celebration with our friends in Washington state. Without stopping to unpack a single thing from the camper (which we bought from one of the friends we visit with down there) Richard was off to the back yard, looking forward to seeing the rest of his concrete pads in place from the job started a week ago. |

Looks Awesome guys...
You can definitely see "the Vision" of what's to come.

Richard says, the vision will only come together if YOU keep visiting! Huge thanks again for all your help.
You know Richard planned this so that by the August long weekend, the concrete will have cured enough to use the inside of the barn, and not just for meals in the shade. Richard seems to think you boys will want to spend part of the long weekend assembling the 2-post hoist...
I hope we spend it at the lake. With what we've got planned for yard work between now and then, not to mention work, we're going to need another vacation! But with the toughest work done on the barn now, it's more play than work from here on in.
