At this stage most of the dirt had been removed and the begining outline of the bowls could be seen... sort of. I wanted to climb up the truss of the digger to get a better arial shot, but the guys were working on-site and were really cool about letting me take a look, so I didn't want to push my luck... or fall on my ass in a large hole.

On this visit, the rebar was in place as well as tracks for pouring the concrete. Portions of the metal coping was welded into place.
