| Mid July - Ed is going to build his
retaining wall. See all the heavy block that he ordered!
It came during the hottest part of the summer. The heat
index was greater than 100 degrees!! He got a total of
200 bags of cement - 80 pounds each. |
|
| They started laying brick. The back of
the house was started first. Ed would delivery lemonade
and fruit punch to the bricklayers and workers. They
liked seeing him then. |
|
| The brick layers could only build 6 feet
heighth a day so the mortar would dry for a day. |
|
| August 2006. Pictured is the master
bricklayer, Mike Harris. Ed insisted that he lay a row of
brick. He is the owner of the company and hadn't layed
brick for over a decade. |
|
| Mike stated that you never lose your
touch - it's like riding a bike. Watch him go. This is
the front of the house. |
