Well, there you have it. Only one row to go until the first lift gets filled with concrete. The openings are doors. Still have a few end blocks to do for those. We'll do it all tomorrow in the cool of the morning. Have several other things to do before the pour. Like corner bracing, electrical chase, inspection, etc.
Wes thinks it really should be a swimming pool. Throw in a liner, turn on the hose...ba-da-bing. He also suggested a diving board on the roof off the existing building (which is directly to the left of the picture). The 'bridge' kinda looks like a diving board already.
We've gotten this far since laying the first block Wednesday evening. We just did a row per night the first 2 nights, then we got crankin'. Did 4 rows today. Gene's sister and husband stopped by today and helped with last row of the day. Yay! We quit for the day because of heat and the next row requires rebar be laid first, which means bending and getting it together. Too hot. Too hungry. Too tired. Tomorrow.
It's really like giant Legos. There is also some straightening to do yet. It's looking pretty good so far...corners are square and vertically level.
Now if you'll excuse me, it's nap time.
