The guys all showed up just after 7am, but had to hang out on the front porch because of the rain. Luckily, the rain didn't last too long and they were able to get a start on the morning preparations.
Hurricane Rafael is supposed to pass by the island, around 105 nautical miles to the east-southeast, by 8pm tonight, so the guys wanted to at least get some building materials over here and have the trench dug for the concrete footing during the morning.

I added this last picture to show where the "trash condo" will be built. No one usually uses these steps to get to the house, so it made sense to build the "trash condo" there and not take up any space from the parking area.
The guys will return on Thursday morning. By then, the weather will be much nicer and they should be able to have the wall and the initial structure for the "trash condo" built by the end of the day.
