The Roof has Been Poured!

This Thursday we were finally able to pour the cement roof on our house.  Here are a few pictures...


  Setting up the form and the beams to hold it up is three-quarters of the battle. 


Two metal workers from PauP worked with the guys here to do all this metal work.

Why I love this land so much... the view.

The cement mixer that was given to Lemuel by friends in Ohio made quick work of the concrete pouring part... it only took 6 hours as opposed to the 12-18 that it would have taken if they were mixing by hand.  Thank you Keeneys!!!

The first bucket of concrete on its way to be poured

 A chain forms and they begin passing the buckets down the line
