(L-R) James Dire, Kevin Gounaud and Mike Scanlon work the concrete into the forms. Not shown, but assisting, was CGA physics professor Richard Paolino. This was the second of 3 concrete deliveries (footing - 1, walls - 2, slab - 3). Overall we had 21 cubic yards of concrete delivered at $60 per cubic yard. We also mixed 6000 lbs of dry concrete mix on site (seventy five bags weighing 80 pounds each) which we had delivered from Home Depot on 3 pallets.
