This is the door that was closed up yesterday and the new one that was cut today.
Cutting the rebar in a concrete beam with boltcutters
The bottom beam
The top beam as it falls
I just happened to stroll through the construction site at the cottage as one of the bodega walls was being torn down with a sledge hammer. I had been trying to get a handle on some of the labor laws and I would have loved to taken that sledge hammer and given the wall a few blows.
I ran down to the house to get my camera and the wall was just about gone when I returned. The top and bottom beams and the supporting beams (all made of solid concrete) were all that was left. I got to see the top beam fall.
The roof beams will start going on early next week.

HI,
ReplyDeleteI am positive you didn't miss your calling but you certainly are qualified to make a good reporter. i feel as if I am there.
I feel confident that God wants you right where you are but thanks for the pictures and the before and after stuff is great.
I am sure Bill Brumley and Michael Brumley are smiling in heaven together.
Love you,
Ginger
