Operation Brick Beautification Begins!

Bright and squirrelly Saturday morning Operation Brick Beautification was in full swing.

It started with delivery companies calling to telling me they were on their way, 
or in one case, in my driveway, ready to deliver literally tons of materials. 

There were 5 pallets of brick.
Numerous pallets of concrete, mortar, cement block.

10 tons of sand.
The crew had been over on Thursday to get the new walls staked out and supplies ordered.

As soon as the dumpster hit the ground these guys were busy filling it up. 

It was no time before all of the old brick was down.

The area on the left, behind the diagonal wall is going to be excavated 
to enlarge and square up our patio.

The stairs are going to be excavated out more too. 
The old stairs were much too narrow.


The demolition is going very quickly.  
The crew actually started a few days ahead of schedule 
so they are looking very good to finish at or before Thanksgiving.  
Woohoo!
