Footers on the Fourth

Walton went over to check how the digging was coming along at about 1 o'clock this afternoon, and was surprised to find this:

The crew was already done digging and had all of the rebar in place, too. They must have started really early this morning, or else they are bionic. Notice all of the empty gallon water jugs lying around!

Here is a chunk of that big vein of rock that Terry found when he dug the basement. Hmmmm...wonder if it's granite? Maybe we could mine it and have it polished to make our kitchen countertops. Not.
