The tranquility of island living...
The peace... the quiet... the sound of the jackhammer right outside our door!
Yes, the cement guys did show up. I went next door and apologized to the neighbors for what is going to be a very noisy few days. Joan said, "Do you suppose the guy running the jackhammer drew the short straw?"
This is what they do. And sometimes, you have to work on a Saturday. The original plan was to start the dock construction yesterday, so we are already behind... not that we have a schedule. In the meantime, we are a bit of an eyesore...
When done, the dock will have all composite planking and white railings to match the house. Oh, and a new cement cap on the seawall.

I know you are a bit of a stickler sometimes, so…concrete cap. (sorry, it's the engineer in me.)
Moi? A stickler? All righty - concrete it is! :-)
Cement is what you would use on a tooth cap!
I grew up in a rough neighborhood - there was talk of "cement boots"... never heard anyone talk about concrete boots. ;-)
