Day 13 - Situational Awareness
You would think that a three foot deep 12 inch across hole would be easy to see. Well today I managed to fall in not once, but twice. The first was when I was playing with my dog and I was walking without looking and POW, one leg in the hole. The second time was when I was getting the tarp spread out to put over the concrete because it might rain today. What we did today was order lumber from a lumber yard in town, and we went to Lowe’s to buy about half a ton of concrete.
We also marked where we had to bolt the ledger to make sure it was attached to the joists.

All of the concrete we got today. This is about half of what we need.

All the holes with the dirt cleared away.

The new wheelbarrow we got and assembled.

My dog looking at something off to the side.

Bag of the foundation we poured down each hole.

Me marking off where new bolts need to go.

Myself smiling for the camera. I don’t look the best in this picture all tired and needing a nap.
