Forming Retaining Walls

The North Retaining Walls are taking shape. The pipe lying on the footer is an earth tube which will go thru the wall.  There is another earth tube under the footer.  These earth tubes will furnish air to the West Annex (upper and lower).

 And the footers on the South end are started.  It is estimated that 6 hours more work to complete the walls and footers for the next pour (of all 4 - 2 footers and 2 walls).
