A five gallon bucket is a foot in diameter and just over a foot tall. It will take over 11,000 buckets of concrete, carried from the mixer by hand and up a ladder, to pour the second floor of the Be Like Brit orphanage.

Greetings reader. I am a writer, architect, cyclist and father from Cambridge, MA.
My primary blog, theawkwardpose.com is an archive of all my published writing. The title refers to a sequence of three yoga positions that increase focus and build strength by shifting the body’s center of gravity. The objective is balance without stability. My writing addresses opposing tension in our world, and my attempt to find balance through understanding that opposition.
During 2015-2106 I am cycling through all 48 mainland United States and asking the question "How will we live tomorrow?" That journey is chronicled in a dedicated blog, www.howwillwelivetomorrw.com, that includes personal writing related to my adventure as well as others' responses to my question.
Thank you for visiting.
Ok Paul
I’m up to date now.
Great to see the progress you all are making on this project.

This is earth shattering – I am blown away that you are actually reading my blog! It is a high compliment.
Just arrived. Read your “viewpoint” in ENR. Eye-opening! Looking forward to reading your blog.
