one brick at a time

They came over on the boat in a cube of 525-something, which we unloaded at the site. There's a clamper thing, called brick tongs, that picks up to ten bricks at a time. At a couple pounds per brick, that's a nice little workout. Gym be damned. Today, getting ahead of ourselves a bit, the pressure treated lumber arrives. Then we need to pick up another cube of bricks at the dock. And on Thursday, three more cubes.
We're running out of space on the grounds. Those darn bushes are filling up the place more than we would like.

Wow! I can see it coming together; can envision a building on top of that soon-to-be done brick stilt. Is it called a stilt? Anyway...I've got chills!!!
