Making concrete blocks!

Offloading some gravel from the tractor.

Levelling an area to dry the concrete blocks.

Us girls with Denny's help started working on the blocks. We were mixing by hand at first.

Trying to do schoolwork with Grace amidst the building work!



Putting the mix in the mould.

We found the most amazing quartz stones in the gravel.

Here are a few we made earlier!

After two days and aching arms and backs, we gave the job to two guys! They used the concrete mixer which was faster.


We then helped by sifting the gravel to get the dirt out.


The mould or form

This was our first attempt.



More quartz.
