About this footage
One house project dominates this collection. A crew of men in white T-shirts and jeans, some shirtless, build new steps and a porch on a blue-sided house in Wauconda: they feed a cement mixer in the yard, shovel gravel into wheelbarrows, nail up wooden forms, and pour concrete from a ready-mix truck before kneeling to smooth it with trowels. Beer bottles come out between jobs.
The filming continues in other parts of the property. Two men break rocks with sledgehammers near a cabin in the woods, a man stands by a hand pump with a dog, and crews work at the edge of a muddy shoreline.
When the camera turns away from the work, it finds women in floral house dresses picking fruit, holding roses and cradling a Chihuahua by the car, tulips and a tall sunflower moving in the wind, children playing with goats in a field, and small boats crossing the lake. Builders and anyone making a film about postwar home improvement will find a lot here.
