Digging the footings

We are almost finished 2014, but work continues on the barn foundation - digging the footings. Here are some views of the backhoe at work digging the trenches. In the trenches, metal rebar is laid to provide support for the weight of the walls and building to come. If all goes as planned, tomorrow (the last day of 2014) they will pour the concrete for the footings. Yeah! P.S.: I had to look it up. For those of us not familiar with construction terms, "rebar" is short for "reinforcing bar."
