the pouring process...

This project got started WAY early at about 7:00AM. This is the huge cement pump that pumped the cement over our house into the back yard (scary). What you don't see is the 2 cement trucks waiting down the street and creating a nice road block. Funny thing happened; one of the pipes that works the hydraulics on this pump broke before the pump was fully extended- spewing hydraulic fluid all over the street (nice huh?). The mess is still there (woops!) There was an hour delay while it was getting fixed.

This is our newly-poured front step...
The finished product... nice to be done!
