Garage PROGRESS

On Monday, John Sterrett and Jacob came, dug, rebarred, formed, and poured the footers for the garage retaining walls.

On Tuesday, we took delivery on cinder blocks and mortar mix.












On Wednesday and Thursday, the cinder blocks were shaped into two walls, one on either side of the garage 'face'. The walls are reinforced horizontally and vertically with rebar and filled with concrete from top to bottom.

Front of West Retaining Wall

















On Friday,  Brendan, Sean, Jake and  Kunya, who made the wall, parged the wall - made the surface smooth on all sides and the top.


on to the next step(s) on our way to shotcrete!
