The slab has just been poured! You can see the concrete pump truck in the backgound. That's Ronnie Bogard, the builder, in the red jacket.


The fresh slab as seen from the front of the house.


Here's the east, or shop, side of the slab.


This is from the east side looking through the shop toward the garage.


Here's the back porch. Notice how the slab here slopes gently away from the house to repel water.


Here they're working on the well for the elevator. The elevator has to go down slightly below the slab so that the floor of the elevator car is at the same level as the garage slab.


Meet Eddie Owens, the slab finisher.


The concrete pump truck is flushing out the last of the slag.
