28th - Good bye old bridge

Fred removed all the dirt and gravel from the old bridge. It was a railcar.

Here is the footbridge that we will be crossing over for then next couple of days.
Hopefully the creek won't rise anymore than it has or we will have to swim across.

27th - Our 1st Anniversary

Today was our anniversary. We had a nice picnic lunch beside the creek.

After lunch we worked on stripping the third and final form. Here are the two sides of the bridge. We did not get the form totally stripped but we will have tomorrow to work on it.
We rented the excavator again and Fred began moving the pile of dirt and trees away from the forms so the crane will be able to get to them Thursday.
We will be walking across the creek on a foot bridge for the next couple of days until the bridge is put into place.

Chico

This weekend, Fred and I went to Chico Hot Springs Resort for our 1st anniversary ( a week early). We swam in the hot springs which are around 94 degrees. They also have other things to do such as horseback riding and rafting trips.
