Today's Construction Update

The team house is looking more and more like a building all the time. Today, Allen and his crew created forms, in order to pour concrete around the window and door openings. Here is a formed opening:



Here is a window with the concrete surround in place, and the forms removed:



In case you're wondering, all of this brick, block, and concrete will be covered with a finish which will give the appearance of adobe construction. That's why we aren't paying attention to making a smooth finish between the bricks and the concrete.

For fun, I played with one of the pictures Allen took today, using the Paint program (we're too poor to actually own the Photo Shop program ;-D ), and put some additional brickwork and a roof line onto the picture, to give an idea of the shape of the final building.



Looking at that picture makes me feel like packing some boxes! ;-D
