Well, I hate to spring this on you but today is the last day of summer school. I know what you're thinking, "Hey! The things not done." I know, I know. We're going to continue for the next two weeks, so everyone pray for a miracle. Paul and Marty are gonna stick around until the bloody end which for them will hopefully be next week. After that I don't know. I can only hope that my motivation to finish this blog will hold out. http://picasaweb.google.com/Blackmore.Pavilion/8609#

Yes, were still laying stone. The good news is we've finished the walls and started on the fireplace. The bad news is...... It's huge! I am getting better at finding rocks though which makes life alot easier. Also, I forgot my camera.

The concrete company came and poured the slab today. It's beautiful! It almost looks like there's going to be a building here. I laid stone all day, and that is no fun. Talk about a jigsaw puzzle. http://picasaweb.google.com/Blackmore.Pavilion/72809#

We finally got the fireplace pad poured after yesterdays fiasco. Sara and I set the formwork for the block outs. We discovered that we hammer like girls. http://picasaweb.google.com/Blackmore.Pavilion/72309##

Today was actually a really busy day. We laid about half the rebar for the slab. We were going to get the fireplace slab poured but the framing was the wrong size (that might have been my fault). Dustin had the concrete mixer up there and while he was mixing the latch came undone and concrete spilled everywhere. Also the lady from the Bozeman Chronicle came up to do a story on the project. http://picasaweb.google.com/Blackmore.Pavilion/72209##

Who knows what those crazy boys are doing. Sara and I worked on the picnic table. Then we went out to Wagner Nursery to look at the feature rocks and get there measurements. It was a good day to sleep in.http://picasaweb.google.com/Blackmore.Pavilion/7809#

Sara and I were going to lay some 4" block but that got nixed, so we went to The Daily, had coffee and worked on the picnic table design. while we were there we saw this beautiful cross brace connection that might be great in the pavilion. http://picasaweb.google.com/Blackmore.Pavilion/7709#
