Daily changes...

I guess I am making up for being gone. I go over there every day. Went Monday b/c I hadn't seen it for forever, Tuesday for a meeting, Wednesday to give an out of town friend a tour. And every day there are changes. Couldn't resist another post.

Back patio is really something else.


Cool shadows.


This is our lawn. Seriously. A few squares of dirt with plants. That is it.


Steep view from top of stairs to roof.


Dave Rush giving thumbs up as roof top dirt is transported with a huge crane.


The crane only stretches so far.


Case work is amazing. Guest bath vanity.


The unveiling of the murphy bed in guest room.


You can actually walk on the stairs.

Tile in adu bathroom.


Tile going up in guest bath. Fiddlesticks is what they are called.

Coming along...

Being gone for 2.5 weeks makes a lot change. Check it out.

Landscaping in progress.


Bluestone in back courtyard.


Tile in workout room shower.


Fence is getting built.

Beautiful, eh?


Love those accordion doors.

The kitchen cabinets are gradually going in.


The first set of stairs are functional.


The views still don't suck.

Updates while I am away...

Although I am not home to document the progress, much is being made. I only have a few photos sent by Corey, which look to be taken from his iphone. It makes me so anxious to get back and see all that has been done. Here is what he has sent me:

Pavers in the back.


Fence.


Built in desk.

First steps.

Early October Updates!

2 visits to the site this past week before my departure. And now the updates will have to wait for 2.5 weeks. So much is happening every day, so I hope someone will document it along the way. Otherwise get ready for some huge changes in a couple of weeks.

Nice dirt digger in the front.

Old fence is coming down soon. Plywood is down.

Sneak peak at kitchen cabinets.
Next time there, they are already starting to put them in.


Shower pan base is tiled. It will be covered with a wood decking floor.


Driveway is looking smoother.


The 'heads of state' gather for a meeting.


Tim's rooftop deck is essentially finished.


The stair treads are HEAVY!

Less than a week later...

Constantly little things changing. Are we still going to move in at the worst time of the year? Looks that way. Anyone want to buy a condo???

Interior stucco has the base layer on.


Prep for shower in the master bath.


And in the training room bathroom.


The sauna has a removable floor. Very cool.

Update from last day in September.

Count down is on. I have to go over there more than weekly to keep up on the changes.

Exterior stucco is done and looks amazing.


Side of the garage view.


Fireplace hearths have been polished.


Roof top deck is underway.


Sauna is getting a floor soon.


Cool view.

Shower pans are passing the leak proof test.
