Driveway project-Day 2

Getting post #1 in took the longest.

There was lots of measuring and remeasuring.

How do we keep that post in it's perfectly measured position? I know!

DUCT TAPE!!

After lots of measuring and digging holes and redigging holes for posts #2 and #3 they were finally ready to mix the cement-in the dark!


After posts #2 and #3 were cemented in the all important question...how do we keep them in their perfectly measured position until the cement hardens? I know! Scout knots...taut line hitches and two-half hitches! Tom watched to make sure the measurement never changed while Terry adjusted his knots! Works everytime!!!

Finally....clean up! The work crew will be here for Day 3 bright and early in the morning!
