Today was the day to pour the foundation. This is an exciting day because it is the first time something was "constructed" instead of "deconstructed." Nothing on this project is exactly easy as the site access is small the the grade of the land is very steep. The guys had to move most of the concrete with wheelbarrows and buckets because the concrete slide on the truck did not quite reach every area. As always the guys worked extremely hard and finished the poor before late afternoon. A pallet of type S mortar also arrived on site today along with some of the blocks for the foundation.

Later I learned that the guys were actually "shooting" the concrete through the air to get it to where it needed to go. Nice technique boys.
