Not much action to be seen in the pics Uncle Bob.
I have found the 'donation' of a slab of beer upon the completion of a stage hastens completion of the entire project.

Same here shine, tough to get interest in flatwork alone.
Jack, going to be a bit over 1100 foot, done tandem style, back corner will be garden equipment room with it's own door.
Mike, I've set myself up with the expectation of the end of October........hopefully I've been unoptimistic enough.
JB, sometimes that works, but with individual subs at each phase it's not always possible to get "appreciation" continuity. This is sort of the less visually glorious stuff though some of the most important (as you probably know). The dirt work here is pretty important given the native soil. Then the mud contractor has to get his square and level, dig the beam trenches. The electrician and plumber run their lines, and then the mud guy again for vapor barrier and reinforcement lay in. That's where we got to at weeks end. Suppose to pour this week, but, if the weather weenies are correct, we're in for a week straight of rain. Depending on batch plant scheduling (which doesn't affect just my job) we may not get poured before Wednesday when it's supposed to fall. Could lose a week here.........we'll see.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
I see a picture of his clutch setup.
