Katie, Annie, Abbie, Amelia and I all went to the cabin on an emergency Monday to get the in-floor heat ready for concrete in the morning. It was an awesome day. Much more work and time thany any of us expected.
The girls, including an expecting mother, ruled the day.
After Saturday, I decided to buy a couple electric staplers, and 10,000 3/8" staples. We went through 7,500 staples today. The floors will be poured 1" thick. Chicken wire just doesn't lay down very nicely without a lot of staple persuasion.
Major changes Tuesday morning. Concrete truck and pumper truck arrive at 10 am.
