After a lot of heavy lifting and rock breaking, it's no wonder M & H felt like prisoners doing hard-time. Their work will be much-appreciated when we take a bath or wash clothes without worrying about water! So worth it considering how much the removal of the rock increased the volume of the cistern (easy for me to say as I was warm and dry in Vancouver). We had estimated about 13,000 gallon capacity for the cistern - thanks to their ingenuity and sweat, we think we may be well over that amount. Talk about a happy surprise!
As you can see, Marc and Huguette have also placed the forms for the footings and the edge of the cistern floor. After that, the steel grid in the cistern floor will be installed and then they will finish placing the re-bar for the footings.
