A Few More Days of Warm Weather

It's allowing me to work on the scratch coat and I'll finish the staircase section tomorrow. It's really great to see the great white monolith slowly become devoured by gray cement. in the process, reducing the starkness of the total structure. I'm tempted to run stone afterwards, but with the forecast changing in two days, and PLENTY of other things I need to finish and begin, I'll fight the urge.

We reset two French doors today, swapping their positions for a better entry into the their respective spaces. While all of them are set and most shimmed, there are a few other things to do to finish their installation, including putting on the handle and lock sets.

I finally got the electrician to energize the line to the house and we now have power in the garage. Waiting for service entry cable to take the power up to the sub-panels. But this weekend I'll begin wiring the house!

Sandra continues to stain, moving over the the right side of the house today. She might just be able to finish before the weather changes. She also designed a gate for the drive. I think it is going to look fantastic. Will go out for pricing this week. Called one place online who does really nice work, and they are a year wait! Yeah I guess they do nice work! But there are several places in Albuquerque that we'll check out.
