Crap. After taking about 30 mins to get these stupid pictures to work, they are in the wrong order. Look at the last one first for the correct sequence.

Man, I wish! This is going to be a long-term build. I do have the N.O.C. though!

It's sand. It looks like I will need close to 30 truck loads of it. I'm building at 38' above sea-level. The law says 37, but I don't want to take any chances on a flood. The sand has to be compacted to 97% before I can pour concrete. It squishes down a bunch!

That does look like Florida sand. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

I'll just turn my 'puter upside down. Congrats, glad things are finally coming together for you.
