But Very Soon. The concrete crew is scheduled to be here this Thursday and Friday. We have arranged for the 78 yards of concrete to be delivered. Now all we need it Mother Nature to cooperate and give us a few more days of nice weather. Jeff and I spent this weekend getting everything ready for the shotcrete. We went over the entire structure tightening loose tie wires and putting little foam spacers underneath rebar if it was touching the foam forms.
I stapled a white clothes line around the perimeter of the retaining wall arches. When the shotcrete is applied, the concrete crew will use this as a guide to where to trowel to.
It will be so wonderful to finally have the shell done. This has been a long, and sometimes arduous path, but there is light at the end of the earth sheltered home.

Do you have any picture updates?
BTW, we are thinking of getting one of your Mortar sprayers to create a retaining wall.
