Fill that hole

see this post Using the single handle dragline and imagine that hole with 4 or 5 inches of "hand mixed" "wheelbarrow" type concrete…

I got my walk in today… and then went to Lowes and got the bags of sacrete, blocks, and mortar to work on the other section under the stair landing… It took about 3 hours ( I ain’t fast with hand mixing)… to get the base concrete poured in that trench and now it sets and waits to get hard so I can put the blocks in there and fill up most of that hole… I got the parts ordered for the downspout diverter to run the outlet below the steps and get the water away from going under… so things are coming together on that project… but still several days of PURE LABOR left to finish it up…

I also worked a bit more on cleaning out the shop and making a few more contacts when 10 meters opened up this evening… Another great day… although the past two has had hard wind blowing but today… when I was plenty hot… I didn’t think it was blowing hard enough? oh well..
