Starting to layout wall.

  Dug 17 postholes to help support sidewalk and to tie old seawall to new seawall. There are 4 rods drilled completely through old wall. they protrude into postholes and into new wall making all three tied together as one.

  Rebar set and drains cut in.

 The pictures below show how much sand washed away in just one night of waves. This is right after the ice melted.
