I took the van that Garry had left there (both cars had gone there with the stuff they needed he and Jeremy had bought the night before) and brought coffee, tea and cookies to the heifer barn worksite.
No students there, just Garry, Scott, Mick, Max, Rodion (the father of Jack's English learning friend, who's here with his son until Saturday morning).
Jack rode with me to ask Garry a couple of questions. They were just finishing pouring the wall and Garry was very happy that his forms had held together. They were getting ready to pour the rest of the pad (they had been a little short on concrete Monday). I left the bag of stuff on the concrete for them to enjoy when they finished and drove home to finish making lunch.
It was soup and hotdogs wrapped in biscuit dough and cookies the guests had brought. Everyone was there by noon, and I ran out of bowls and no one got seconds on soup this time.
When Nelly and I went over with coffee around three o'clock Garry was bricking the septic tank, and the guys were working inside the house. There's lots to do yet.
Garry turned the lights out on them, so everyone was back for dinner at 6:20. I was planning on seven pm but everything was ready.
