Footings!!

They started putting the forms down on Tuesday only to find that they needed the hole a little bit bigger, so the excavator came back Tuesday night to give them one more foot. They came back yesterday finished the forms and poured in the afternoon.

Footings take 1
Take 2Here comes the pump truck.
(I took the picture so you could appreciate the tight space these guys are working in)The pump extended.

There is a hose at the end of the arm of the pump truck that they carry around to make the concrete go where it needs to go. Apparently it is about 300 lbs. Here is how the mixer gets the concrete into the pump truck.

Almost finished

Completed footings!!! They are here building the walls today!
