Twas a Dark and Stormy Day...

The day the foundation was poured. Wow! It was definitely different weather for the cement pouring today than the day when the footings were poured. Today was cold and very, very wet. It did get done though. They had to scrape and level the cement once it was poured into the forms. Then they will be putting boards embedded with nails in the top of the cement foundation walls while they are still wet (upside down so that the nails are set into the concrete). These boards are what the floor joists will be nailed to; it makes for a very sturdy base.

It was a great day for the kids at Muddy Paradise. I had to drag them away they were having so much fun.
