Off to Keoma we go to check a local mason's work on a fireplace. It was a little more rustic than we hoped
a quick phone call from the concrete guy changed all plans.. he called to say the basement needed more leveling! WHAT!!!! Well after 7 hours we lifted all the foam and poly, tamped the gravel with a plate tamper and then re installed the tetris puzzle!! HOLY COW!! another challenge of house building.
this is a smile at the start of the project
fairly dusty work, not the best color choice in clothing
finally by supper time we needed a beverage, talented can even do it one handed.. in the middle :-)
essential tools needed for this project, tape measure, sealing tape, pencil, a rake and some good kitchen knives (see Amanda, Sheldon's ginsu works wonders out here too)
once we finished the baseent we headed out.
While Sheldon worked at leveling the garage and marking floor lines I filled the horse water tubs and harrowed the fields with my trusty helpers.
At 8:30 we met Sharon and retrieved the 4-H Banff over nighters and headed home for a well needed shower and supper.
