Today they poured the footer to get it ready to lay the retaining wall on top of it. They were able to pour it before the rain came.

Today they put the retaining wall in! They were able to install it in one day. This wall will hold all the dirt behind our property so it doesn't collapse into the house/basement. Each slab weighs 3,000 pounds. The truck that delivered it was pulled over and fined $500 because it was 33,000 pounds over the weight limit.
