Just back from a trip to Champaign and lots of things happening at the house. First off, they started the roof. It will be a standing seal metal roof, silver in color.

The front wall has had its first of two coats of stucco (brown coat). The color coat, which will match the house, will be applied once the brown coat has dried.

You probably also noticed that the front gate shade structure has been installed. This will get stained the same color as the other outside wood beams soon. There will be a nice gate made from all reclaimed wood that will be hanging there soon.

They also started to install flooring upstairs. In the main house we have cork flooring. Here is a nice photo.

Then we went over to see our concrete-meister, Joseph Austin, who is busy grinding the concrete countertops for the kitchens and baths. In a word...gorgeous! We love how the recycled glass and natural rock aggregate comes out with the grinding. And Joseph puts some loving care and pride into his work. See for yourself!

We are still targeting getting our certificate of occupancy on Feb. 1 with hopes of moving in that weekend. It's coming fast now!
