    July 23 - 26  This week we  laid in the rebar and attached the lines for the in floor heating system. On Saturday at 7:00 AM the concrete for the pad arrived. We used a concrete pump unit to place the concrete and by 11:00 AM the concrete was completely troweled and starting to set. The  4100 sq.ft. of pad took 11-1/2 truck loads of concrete. In the afternoon the form on the front was removed and the insulation for the footings was put in place


    July 12 - 19 This week we continued the forming of building pad. The plumbers came and roughed in the drains and water pipes. The electrical and telephone conduit was also trenched in. After we tamped the gravel fill for the pad for a firm bed for the concrete.

    July 7- 12 This week we had a contractor do the primary site filling and grading. Also the contractor laid the waterline across Gregoire Drive. We formed and placed the concrete curbs for the parking lot. We also started staking out the concrete pad for the building.
