If your not familiar with concrete, you may find this interesting. Concrete is poured into the truck on the left by one of those big trucks with the spinning barrels on the back. Then this truck (on the left) pumps the concrete up into this pipe. This pipe is controlled by a remote. The guy standing on the far left with the orange box is operating the remote.

Pouring Concrete by the dawn's early light.

At 5:30 AM, on August 3rd, the first concrete was poured at the site.

Laying Pipe and Conduit

Digging The Trenches

7/23/07, Batzer begins trenching for the underground plumbing and drains.

Construction To Start

We are ready to start construction of the new building. We have the needed permits and Batzer has started. This is the steel structure of the building that was delivered on 7/19/07.

Happy Father's Day

I'm sure you have all noticed that I have not updated this blog. If you have driven by the store, you have seen that construction has stalled. Do not be concerned. Jamie decided to move the building back a smidge to add more parking to the front of the store for our customers. Therefore, we are waiting on approvals for this and a few other clearances and then the building will be underway again.
Construction should begin soon. We hope before the end of this month.

Happy Father's Day Jamie and Mitch (my dad). Thank you for all that you do.

Setting The Forms

The shale has been laid and the forms are now up for the foundation.
