Here are the footing forms after Fred stripped the wood off of them. We didn't strip the form off the arch. Fred will probably do that tomorrow after work.
Here are some goats (five) on the cliffs across the road from the house.
This is Joe (in picture below). He works with Fred and came out to help. He is guiding the concrete chute into the footing.
Here is another angle of the same.
Fred is smoothing out the concrete to make sure it is level.
Here is one that has been poured and leveled out.
I had to work so I got to miss the fun. The last truck was just getting ready to pull out when I got home from work. Fred and Joe were smoothing out the concrete in the curved form that we had built. Fred had also built a curved slab to place the next form on so it will be easier to level up. He had some concrete poured into it. The next installment of concrete will be in a couple of weeks (hopefully). The weather was just right for this pour. Tomorrow will be a day of fun and recreation. 
I attached the weld plates to some wooden blocks so that I could mount them in place in the form
I also added a filler strip to eliminate the sharp angle at the bottom of the arch. It's the triangular piece. Sharp edges in concrete tend to break off easy.
I also mounted some 3" PVC pipe to form a couple of holes in the arch. Later these will be used in hoisting it into place.
