Last day...

As it turns out, today was our last day on "the job site" as they ran out of work for us. We took care of a few odds and ends (caulking and painting). The hardest remaining task was hanging the two exterior doors - a little matter of the opening being too short. Joe (with the Darth Vader look) used the power chisel to correct the problem. (Recommendation - measure twice, then twice more, then have someone else measure again when you're pouring a concrete wall. Joe will tell you that taking a half inch off the top of the opening is NOT much fun.)
However, the guys are already looking over the styrofoam blocks to see how they go together. They can't wait to be invited back to help put them together for the next build.


Our team had a GREAT time!!! so will be going to the town winery (since it's Texas wine it seems to be legal in this "dry" county) before 6:00. As the librarian says, "We go to bed early here in Mason".
