By the time Hadley got back from both trips with all four stumps, Dixie was done with her small half wall and lifting it to balance on the other three, hammering it into place easily. Pushing on the side, she tipped it forward and then held on as it balanced out, the floor slab sitting on the grass. The top was mostly even, almost perfect. Now she had to figure out how to make a water proof roof to put on the top. After stepping up onto one of the stumps that Hadley was done smoothing out, she looked over the frame and nodded. I'm going to make the roof another flat slab. It doesn't need to be fancy, just somethin' ta protect 'em.
Smiling at the big man, her little tantrum forgotten, she went back to the wood pile, which was surprisingly large still. With the slabs that they'd salvaged, already made...most of the lone pieces of wood weren't being used. Grinning happily, she lined a few up and began hammering a connector on top, effectively latching them all together. Another few were put together and then the whole thing pushed into one big piece and connected with a few well placed nails. Think we can lift this up onto those pieces together?
