| Just on the verge of a possible huge storm, we got over to the Lagoon house to unplug the computer after getting a phone call from a friend in Foley that a tornado had been spotted out our way. It was pitch black dark. Mike & his son, Trace, had lights set up and the first truck of blocks arrived. They unloaded as fast as possible, but the storm must have slipped north of us cause we never got any wind, etc.. | |
|
Next morning, Friday, another truck arrived and was unloaded. The ground was still pretty firm then. |

![]() A while later, a second truck arrived on Friday. ..still more cornice blocks. |
![]() On Saturday morning I saw that a whole load of straight blocks had been delivered and unloaded. They are packed in about as tight as possible. |
![]() A number of solid lintels had been delivered and are on the west side of the yard for now. They go over the window and door openings. |
![]() So what we have now is a lot of blocks delivered in a short amount of time. |

Another load of blocks arrived ! By now we
had rain over and over between deliveries.
It has not rained much around here for about a year, but now, all of a sudden, we are getting rain every day...in Granada it has rained as well. One piece of the loading equipment got stuck and a big time wrecker had to be called. |
| It has rained all day on Sunday, so the ground is like one fluffy marshmallow....sure hope it stops for a while, the ground is starting to get real torn up. I know most of it will eventually, but just for the sake of erosion and dust, better later than now. | |
