Day 8



The weather has been hot and sunny! There were many gravel runs, extra measurements and even some cement mixing. A “snagging lane” was marked around the outside of the structure as requested! We began measuring the cable for the inner ring of the arbor. We had lots of volunteers come out to help us with all of our work. Justin’s parents came and paid us a visit- the surprised us by bringing us some cookies, a puffed wheat square (a Saskatchewan specialty!), lots of water and gatorade, pepperoni sticks, beef jerky and some delicious spicy habanero pepper chips which revived our energy levels and helped us finish the day. Only our friend Dion was missing in action- he had to take his grandkids to the Melfort Fair. He brought us back some doughnuts to share- a welcome treat after a day in the sun!

After a hard day of work we managed to set up all of the tripods (even the one where most of the large rocks were located)! We were on a roll.

Some of the gang went to Melfort for Pizza and dancing (dance moves so good Melfort will never forget them!)
