Day 94 - Precious Metal

We had a very special visitor to our house site the other day, Davis, who was visiting his family in the neighborhood.  Davis is from the Seattle area and was more excited about all of the pickup trucks than the construction work.  He is a very bright, polite young fella and we were so glad he came by to visit.

While electrical work continues inside the house, things are moving along on the outside as well.

The stucco lath application is complete and the guys are starting to apply the next layer of material on the outside walls.

Our Stucco Guys

Mixing up the "mud"
The house exterior is a mixture of stucco and limestone rock.  The stucco goes on first, is painted, and then is followed by the rock work.

The Window Exteriors are Protected from the Stucco



The Guys are Really Agile on the Roof Slope

Doesn't Look Comfortable to Me!!!!
Our roofing contractor is on the scene as well and making progress installing the panels.

The roof material is standing seam metal which will last a really long time, sound really cool in a rainstorm, and is perfect for rainwater collection. - Precious Metal :-)

The stucco and roof work will take about two weeks to complete and then the stone work will start.  We are really excited about the progress.
