The men seem to make more and more progress every day.

As you can see, the block for the second floor is about done. They are now putting up the forms for the arches on the second floor balcony. Check out the other pictures below.

A couple of days later, all the re-rod for the crown is in place. Then, they will frame it in and make the pour for the concrete crown. This should be done by the middle of next week.

This shot gives you a better glimpse of how the re-rod is set in place.

After the crown is set they will begin installing the Almond beams for the roof structure. This type of wood is very hard and insect resistant. - Stay tuned..
