Concrete Pad is Poured

We have a floor pad finally.  Concrete pump arrived on site at 4.40am much to the consternation of our neighbors (we have spent the afternoon visiting, handing out boxes of chocolates and apologizing for the early start).  Once they got the pump in place and the first truck in and out it all went pretty smoothly and by around 9am the pour was done.

    Do you have time to paint some lines and play tennis before the walls are up? Not tripping over the plumbing would add to the challenge. It looks great!
