Round II .... Phase I

Alright folks...here we go again... it's oven building time! And this time, there is actually a serious plan (see photo to left). Andy spent the better half of Saturday drawing up some plans for our brick oven. Using "The Bread Builders" book guidelines, we went out and staked the area we want to build, established dimensions that work and Andy set to putting in on paper (well...on computer). It really felt nice to establish a plan of attack, it is going to be beautiful! (I am really quite excited about the timber frame and slate roof...yup...slate). As you can see in the photo it will be completely sheltered as well as the two tables that will be on either side of the oven (one for makin' the pizza, one for slicing the baked pizza...of course). Next step... laying the foundation. It looks like Friday night pizza nights are really going to happen. YAY!
