People on a Bridge

Mixing concrete

HD and LM mixed a batch of concrete to make four pavers for our garden path. For whatever reason, our local hardware store ran out of this particular size, and doesn't intend to get them in again. While the monetary savings are minimal by DYI-ing, the gains in fun and male bonding cannot be ignored!

I contributed my talents, too. My job was to gently tap on the workbench from below (as well as along the sides of the form) to get rid of air bubbles from the mixture and to ensure it went evenly into the corners. I hope our neighbors didn't mind the commotion; it was a bit late while we did it all!
