Friday

Finished the block work on all six columns for the gazebo at Ahi.

The next step is to grout them (fill all the cells with concrete) and pour a concrete cap with anchor bolts to hold the metal post bases that I made in Arizona. I brought them in my checked bag (a cardboard box).

Ordered a truck load of 2 1/2″minus (sand and gravel that measures 2 1/2″ in diameter and smaller) for the driveway. It will be delivered in the morning. I will spread it on the driveway to reduce the slope and make it easier to drive up and down. I will also sift some of it through a screen I made to remove the larger rocks (anything that is larger than about 1″) and use this material and add cement to make the concrete to grout the cells of the columns.

TTFN
