Construction; Progress Report 2

By last night, the armatura (upright metal columns) were in place and most of the block for the foundation had been laid.

We hauled the cement mixer up a couple of days ago to speed up the process … even the kids want to help.

The bodega (storeroom) is now finished and stocked with cement and tools, and the piles of cement block, wooden pilings and gravel are ready to use.

And work has begun to dig the hole for the septic tank … a job that will be difficult given the fact that this mountainous location is pure rock.
