    So, unexpectedly, they showed up for the pour this morning. :dex:
    They have this 2 yard mixer, and it'll take almost 5 loads to finish (can only really do about 1.75 yds).

    We had a small slab done for the new rear door while they were here. We plan to get a pre-cast concrete step for it.

    Allan is doing great. The doctor is pleased with his progress. For the next couple of weeks, it will be hard for him to still take it easy when he feels so good.

    They came back yesterday with a large tarp and covered it right before the rain began. If the rain holds off, they'll be back today to pull forms.
