Basement Wall Started

Friday the 26th our mason started the basement wall. Made pretty good progress for 1 day. What has been completed looks pretty good. The exterior side of the wall had the mortar cleaned nicely just like the inside of the wall. Extra points awarded for that!

 Notch at the top of the wall is for glass block windows.

 My back hurts just looking at all those blocks!

 Notice big gap at back. Hoping to get sunroom caught up with the rest of the basement this coming week. We should get spring flow issue resolved during the week to get footers poured. Going with wider footer and extra rebar just to feel better about the whole thing.

 Postioning glass block where we would like them put.
