Rick and Ellen's sort of up date history on what we are up to.....

As we sort of close one chapter of our lives being gainfully employeed to that of retirement. I really wanted to do a blog and sort of just do some writing and news now and then rather than the mass e-mail. Seems more friendly, more cup of coffee warm and fuzzy.

God Bless!

Shop is Coming Around

The shop at the ranch is coming along very well now that it is all in motion. Footing or footer is formed here. If you notice Tig has taken her supervisory roll here very well.

Here the footings have been poured and the walls formed except for the one end that we left open to get Pat's backhoe in and fill the center and level it all out.

Pat did such a great job he was only high one spot and we work it down and compacted it after we got the walls poured. Here is a photo of it up to that point with the reinforcing wire down. The reason it looks so un-level is the wire not laying down flat.

Ellen looks so good here this place does her well.

Me and John Landers discussing business. High level stuff we will not even allow the dogs to come around. Note them in the car.

Second week of September and the finisher brought up concrete blankets. He said as much as this is costing up there for concrete he was not going to take a chance. I really think he has done 110% for us. We sort of just meshed very well.
