Once the foundation walls were completed and the dirt spread, a concrete cap and floor was poured on top of the fill. As soon as the concrete floor was dried in the masons went to work raising the walls of the house. This is the current phase of construction and is in day two of a project four-day cycle to completely construct the block shell of the house. I'll update this section the week after Thanksgiving when the masons complete their work. They worked today, Saturday, 11/18/06, and will be taking next week off for the holiday.
That's Mercy's Dad checking out the construction. Thanks for lending scale to the pics, Papi!
Licky the yard cat came over to inspect and gave his comment by peeing on the wall. Damn cat!
Pedro also had to get in on it, but he was too dumb to figure out how to get up from the garage.
By the way, that last shot is the fireplace again. Having never had a fireplace before, I am kind of fascinated by this thing and how it is being built. Can you tell I've lived my whole life Florida, or what!
