Meanwhile, our concrete finishers completed their careful work on our driveway. A little like our dramatically swooping balcony, our driveway incorporated some graceful curves as well; cars would turn in from the street and curve around to enter the garage. The concrete finishers made the wood forms obey and figured out how to jigsaw the seams, and when they were done, they accomplished the twin goals of smooth conveyance and proper water drainage.
