Kasey's Bend

 

Up

Early work has begun in Kasey's Bend.  Approximately one and a half tons (2,485 pounds) of driftwood rock arrived and the initial design has started to take place.  Every rock in the layout has been moved around at least six times.  The wooden stakes indicate the placement of the bed.

The forms have gone up for the concrete roadbed.  Some areas are very thick.

The concrete fills the forms.

This is how things looked in the beginning.  Lots of fill-in plants.  They were taken out as more suitable plants were found.  These plants required a lot of attention and were used as a fill to keep neighborhood cats out.
