Today the stucco was completed. The house is really coming together. I will post more pictures of the stucco soon. The septic tank was also being installed today. They have the tank set and the leech field dug out. With any luck the septic tank will be complete and the well will begin installation.

One of the greatest improvements to the house was the stucco work today. The guys are doing a great job and the house is starting to take shape!

Stucco has been an ongoing effort for the last 2 weeks. We are only at the lathe inspection and we cant seem to pass. Our stucco crew failed in applying the stucco lathe the correct way and we were red tagged. his week we will be fixing the lathe to satisfy the building department’s comments so we can pass inspection and begin the application of stucco.
