2nd (brown) coat of stucco in process

There are three coats of stucco...the first is the scratch coat. Here's a cool picture of the scratch coat.

The second layer is the brown coat. here are a couple of photos of that.

and another pic of them applying the brown coat to the scratch coat.

The inside of the house has been primed. Today's word is that they will finish all painting inside before staining the concrete floor. Target to begin staining is Dec 12.

Other news...we are headed into some chilly night-time temperatures here down in the teens. Therefore, it is time to winterize Stella (the Airstream trailer). This means that we will no longer have running water in the trailer for washing dishes, etc. bummer. But the inconvenience of hauling water will be outweighed by the peace of mind that we won't have broken pipes!

Also, today was Karin Lynn's first day on the job at Los Poblanos (http://www.lospoblanos.com/). Very exciting!
