These pictures were taken the week of July 17 through the 23rd.
Sushila Devi Dasi helps with the pipes.
Shatrughna helps with building the forms.
Many more measurements are needed.
Devaki and Vrinda help move the earth.
As do Ratan Krishna and Mahadevi.
These wheelbarrows get really heavy.
Once the loose earth has been placed then it is tamped down to compress it.
The area in front of the forms will be filled in after the wall is built.
Bahulavan Prabhu, our Master Carpenter, and his son Patita Pavan drove up from central California with a truck load of special tools for the upcoming work week.
He discussed the plans with Hasyapriya Prabhu.
After putting out some stakes for the Mandir he actually drove the 4 hours back home and will return next week.
Vidura Krishna right off the road trip visits the devotees.
The Finished Wall.
