Well, we certainly got concrete today. 25 cubic yards.
While the concrete guys were creating our fabulous new floor, Bud, Gary and Jimmy were off on a new adventure. They started working on jacking up the back part of the house.
They placed a 6x6 under the joists and used a couple of bottle jacks to try to raise the sagging floor. (They first tried a 4x4, which bowed pretty quickly.) Their handiwork replaced a crossarm from a telegraph pole that Bud's dad had used to support a cracked joist.
Bud said they weren't able to lift the floor a lot today, but they'll keep working on it tomorrow.
