I'm building my second WFO.

The first one I built provided us with fantastic Neapolitan pizzas but when we sold the house I had to leave it behind

Then we rented for a while and then started to build our new house. The build was supposed to take 6 months and be nice and easy. In reality, its been 2 years now, still not finished but I''m finally able to start thinking about the outside of the house. Recently we got the patio poured and the pergola is up. So amongst the many other jobs, I've started the foundation for the pizza oven MKll a couple of months ago. Following are some pics of the build sofar.
