Day 9 - 10 & 11
LOTS has happened since we blogged last.. Day 9 & part of 10 they put the pans up for the foundation. Day 10 at approx 1:30 PM they started the pour. After 9 cement trucks, 65 yards of cement and 2-1/2 hours later we had a foundation! I watched the entire pour and it was the most amazing thing I've seen in a long time.

From the road you can see the boom truck, the cement trucks back up to it and pour the cement into a hopper and the boom truck pumps it out of a big hose....

Someone holds the hose over the pans but it's really an operator with a remote control joy stick that guides the hose into position so it pumps into the spaces between the pans and the others smooth out the tops, this is the walk-out end of the house....

Mike Anderson is the operator with the remote control....

This is the back of the house....

About 3/4 of the way through the pour it POURED rain, a little damage to the driveway but NO one got stuck, the excavator came later and smoothed it out.
