| Ready for cement |

| A little bit of Alex in there |
Again, a long time since I've updated this, so here is some catch-up on the construction of the Crest Astroshack. We finally got the base cement mixed and dumped into the hole. The hole wasn't quite as deep as I hoped, but digging in our backyard really, REALLY sucks!
It's probably just under 2 feet deep, but with all the pebbles, fist sized rocks, and the 75 lb boulders down there, I figured there was a pretty good surrounding foundation for anything there.
Rebar cage was constructed and suspended in the hole so the horizontal parts would stay in the middle of the slab.
As a tribute and permanent memorial to our late friend, construction supervisor, and helper cat - Alex - we mixed in some of his ashes into the base and put his name on it. He'll forever be an observing companion. We miss him terribly, but know he'll always be out there!
Mix and pour |

| Done! |

| Alex forever |
