The Work Continues

You may remember The Fuzz started this project a while back.
Well, it's has been a slow go with the hot weather and all. And there seem to be other things happening here and there.

The next step was to get these piers mortared together. While The Fuzz never has done this professionally, he has had to dabble with it at times. Particularly at the old place in regards to the "Condition". But that is another story.
So he made a trip into town for some mortar mix. Of course mortar mix must be mixed as can be seen here. He borrowed the garden hoe for this.
Which puts me in mind of a story an old lady used to tell on herself. She was 104 at the time, and The Fuzz's Sweetie was sitting with her. It seems that when she was a bit younger, she was working in the fields hoeing with a couple of young'uns. They were really impressed with her skills and told her "You must be the best hoe-er in North Carolina". She thought it was great.
But back to The Fuzz. He's not really much of a hoe-er himself, but he is getting this done, a little bit at a time. And that's OK.
